The event is called 'delete', and not 'delete-event'...

Yes, but I need to destroy it once I leave it (but only using a special 
close button, not shown here)...

I forgot to remove the show() call from my previous tests. But it does not 
work neither. As soon as I click on the X dialog, the run() returns. This 
is not what I want. I really want to avoid the dialog to be ended; I want 
to stay in its loop...
