I have done some debugging and the event is dispatched when closing the window.
The issue is that the listener try to call window.alert and fails in
WebChromeClient::runJavaScriptAlert because the UIDelegate is null.
The cause is that Cocoa calls (void)setUIDelegate:delegate (in
WebKit/mac/WebView/WebView.mm) to set it to null *before* sending the unload
event.
My knowledge of the mac port is quite limited so I do not who to blame (Cocoa
or WebKit)
