1) Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS
2) gnome-software 3.36.1-0ubuntu0.20.04.0
3) Closing the window should kill the process altogether
4) The process remains in the background instead

This becomes obvious when launched from the shell:

====
The workaround here is to kill the process manually, e.g. `pkill gnome-software`.

Is it designed so to prevent interruptions (accidental or not) during updates? If it is, perhaps a more elegant way would be to display a confirmation dialog/prompt/popup in the case of an ongoing update process, gracefully quit the program otherwise (the process is killed for good).
