Cmd+W and escape have no effect, but I just hate using the mouse for simple tasks like closing windows 🙂.
 
They have to be selected before the keyboard command will work, sometimes they are just in the background... in your image it's selected. I think. Can't check as I'm on XP 😡
 
Sounds like repeating the command to open those mini windows is the one that closes it?

Correct.

COMMAND-W doesn't close these type of Windows, so the command that opens it, usually closes it too.
A bit strange IMHO. Letting COMMAND-W close any active Window is the "consistent" way.
