Q:

The 'X' to close the vote-to-close box is in the wrong place

It should be to the top right - like it is in all the other websites and programs - and where people expect it to be.

A:

Given the huge size of these boxes, I like its current place, as it's closer to the link that opens it. Hence, when erroneously clicking that, it's easier to undo that. (Esc seems to work too, though.)
