Here it is then.

The save prompts one-by-one means that Win~1 sends WM_QUIT to foo.exe,
waits for the message to be processed (i.e. the foo.exe to be closed),
and only then sends WM_QUIT to bar.exe. That's fine even if there are no
unsaved files. I only needed the prompts as a visual indicator of the
message processing, not as serializer.
