I think this button is necesary for newbyes people and psycohandicap people
(I don't know how can I say this). The people who has problems to think and
to know like normal people.

This button lets exit from a window or a dialog and many people doesn't know
how can they close a window in gnome.

If gnome wants more usability and accessibility level, they hve to use close
button. Usability isn't the main thing. Accessibility is important too.
