Research direction

Start with the multiwin example and reproduce the leak by clicking “New window,” closing it, and repeating the cycle. Compare behavior on Windows, Gtk, and X11, then trace the window creation and close lifecycle. Done means repeated window creation and closure no longer retains memory on the affected platforms.
