Huh, seems like I get confused while working on this. There was various problems with our implementation of Connection but it seems like these have been fixed. So, to be able to exit from the web process when it gets the close message, we should just implement RunLoop::exit. The other parts of the patch assures that the web process would exit even when the client did not tear down correctly (killed or crashed). Don't you think this is something we should implement? Actually, I would introduce a common method of Connection what would look like this:
void didDisconnect()
{
    m_client->didClose();
}
Maybe didClose would be a better name. This way all port can schedule to call this on the main run loop when the connection became broken.
Do you like the idea? (I mean the whole concept not just the new function.)
