Quit Notepad++ when last tab is closed?

Is there a way to make Notepad++ exit when the last tab is closed, e.g. by pressing Ctrl+W?

The current behaviour is that a new empty document is created, when the last open tab is closed.

This feature is now available under the preference tab of Notepad++ in the general section.

Notepad++ has a page where you can request new features. Why not ask the author nicely? Who knows you may get the feature built into the next version. The program source code is also available, so if you know a programmer who understands the code and owes you a favour, maybe you could convince them to do it.
