Overview: Say I use JavaScript to open a popup called myWin. If I close it with myWin.window.close(), myWin.closed returns true. If I close it manually (ie. using the window close gadget), myWin.closed does not return true. (I assume this is a bug.)

Good testcase! Thanks for the concise bug report. I'm not sure who to forward this to... tentatively reassigning it to event handling. The DOM functions are right, but somebody implementing the window close event isn't letting the DOM know about it.
I am not sure I understand this bug as it sits. From reviewing the JavaScript I can't see where myWin.closed would be called when it is manually closed. If you could insert a JS "alert" call where something is being called in when the window closes manually and this works on 4.x and not in mozilla then I will have something I can test. (Also, keep mind that when you test in mozilla the alert will beep but a dialog will not show, so you can use "dump" instead, and look at the console window)

Moving M17.
Bulk moving [testcase] code to new testcase keyword. Sorry for the spam!

Setting the keyword all open [4.xp] bugs to 4xp.
