x2goclient-cli is rather an explicatory proof of concept from now on  
and is actually not actively maintained any more. This might change in  
the future, but currently, there seems to be noone really interested  
in the continuation of the work.

This is actually the case. It now depends on the session mode you use:  
desktop, shadow or rootless.

If you close a rootless session window (e.g. a firefox running on the  
X2go server), then of course the firefox application gets close and  
thus the session terminated.

If you close a desktop session window (e.g. a GNOME desktop) then the  
session gets suspended...

If you close a window with a shadow session (option --share-desktop)  
then the shadow session gets terminated, but not so the session that  
the shadow session was connected to.

Hope that helps,
Mike
