Subject: 25.2; desktop-kill should not be in kill-emacs-hook
Date: Sun, 22 Oct 2017 17:27:21 +0100

As per the documentation of `kill-emacs-hook':

> functions placed on this hook should not
> expect to be able to interact with the user.  To ask for confirmation,
> see ‘kill-emacs-query-functions’ instead.

In the meanwhile, `desktop-kill':

> If the desktop should be saved and ‘desktop-dirname’
> is nil, ask the user where to save the desktop.

I suggest either we move `desktop-kill' to `kill-emacs-query-functions'
or we define two functions, one with user interaction, the other one
unattended.
