I just type in the shell (from within my xvnc session): vncserver -kill :1
(or whatever # it is), and then the whole window dies process and all it is
kinda cool.

You can probably write some kind of script for it, but I'm not smart enough
to help you with that :).  I like the default behavior, but I can see how
the auto kill arrangement would be useful.
