Curiously, ClosePalette is not sent when just any palette 
is closed. Try for instance going to the Power Tools stack 
and closing the "List of Tools" palette (after it is opened). 
No close palette message is sent. Now go to the 
Window Manager card and click on the "Show Palette"J
button. When you close this Window Mgr. Palette, a 
ClosePalette message is sent (and you'll see it in the 
Message Watcher.
