Default Word 2007 Document Close

I think there was considerable discussion of this during development, and
there were some technical obstacles it was impossible or impractical to
overcome.

And to make matters worse, some of the Office 2007 apps *do* use the MDI -
Excel, for example... You'd think they'd at least be _consistent_

Simply add the Close button to your QAT. The 'x' is missing because

2007 (like some previous versions) uses Single Document Interface (SDI)

not MDI.
