Indeed, this sounds like the same idea Werner had. Good find.

Stage has the onCloseRequest property. Might make sense to have a similar API in Tab.

This is an interesting idea. I'm not that deep in the FX-API to understand if this the advised way in other areas so. I let Richard and Jonathan comment on it.

Maybe slightly less obvious than an explicit "veto" but more flexible/resuable, too (as a general pattern in similar situations).
