    Description

      In
      QGuiApplicationPrivate::commitData()
      the two lines
      if (session_manager->allowsInteraction() && !tryCloseAllWindows())
      session_manager->cancel();
      cause windows to be closed, which results in the application quitting if QGuiApplication::quitOnLastWindowClosed() is true, which is the default.
      That is NOT what the SaveYourself message of the X session management protocol is supposed to trigger in applications. See:
      http://www.x.org/releases/X11R7.6/doc/libSM/xsmp.html#protocol
      Currently, qxcbsessionmanager.cpp is the only call site of QPlatformSessionManager::appCommitData(), which calls QGuiApplication::commitData(), so QGuiApplication::commitData() should implement at least the XSMP spec correctly.

      This bug prevents some KDE applications from restoring correctly.
