Repro steps:

- Close Sublime Text, the popup remains on the screen:

- Open Sublime Text again, previous tabs are not automatically loaded. This is because Sublime Text did not shut down completely.

Research direction
Reproduce the signature-help popup in Sublime Text, then close the editor and verify whether the popup remains and the next launch fails to restore tabs. Trace the plugin's signature-help and shutdown/lifecycle handling; done means Sublime Text exits completely and restores its previous tabs on the next launch.
