I haven't tried it though, so I'm not sure if it'll work with fedora...

Then why don't you just press the minimize button if you have it or just move the app to other workspace if you don't want it to clutter your main one.

I think Ubuntu want to mimic Apple OSX, i.e. closing an app window is not equals to quitting the app itself. Fedora does not use that paradigm.
