Is there an event to capture the closing of the desktop windowed app? So you could display a dialog to ask the user if he/she wants to exit the app and depending on the choice let it happen or not?

There is application exit event:
http://docs.giderosmobile.com/reference/gideros/EventDispatcher/Event.APPLICATION_EXIT#Event.APPLICATION_EXIT

but it has more of notifying purpose and you can't prevent default behavior of not exiting to ask user for confirmation.

It is possible in plain QT however:

just need to come up with proper way to transfer it to lua

That would be cool.
