Hi,
Do I understand correctly that if I /close a channel window, there is no way
to respawn it, even though I have not parted that channel?
(attempting to /join that channel again does not work)
Did I discover an unintended trap for the unwary?
Cheers.

If you're still in the channel, any message in that channel will
cause the window to reopen. You could also explicitly reopen it
with /query #channel, since all that command does is create a window.

Sort of. It's a side-effect of the UI code not having a concept of
channel state. On the other hand it can be used to do what /clear
would do, in a pinch.
