MacOSX backend not closing properly #4142
Description
MacOSX backend does not seem to be closing properly when plot windows are closed.
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.plot(range(10))
plt.show()
print("Won't reach here")
plt.plot(range(20))
plt.show()The python script will halt after the first plt.show() even after closing the plot windows. Problem seems to be that the backend NSApp is not quitting and is not returning back from show().

Indeed this was caused by some code getting inadvertently lost in pull request 4006.
See pull request 4144 (#4144) for a fix.
