Wouldn't it be simpler to archive the window state into a BMessage and
restore it from there when reopening ? It would save us some useless running
threads, and avoid recreating the window open/close logic in every window we
want to behave that way.
I think you should be able to archive the window without much extra code,
since most of the interface kit already implements BArchivable properly.
