If the script was opened from JavaScript, then it can be closed from JS.
For exmple:
a = window.open()
alert(a) // pause
a.close()

However, the following  does not
close() // equivalent to window.close()

The error is:
Scripts may not close windows that were not opened by script.

This does seem like a good candidate for a GM_ api function.
