In that case I'm starting to run out of ideas, but you could try to use xdotool to bring the bookmark window on foreground and click alt+f4.

Code:
ID=`xdotool search --name "Web"`
xdotool windowactivate --sync $ID key --clearmodifiers --delay 100 alt+F4
I'm hoping that works, but I'm not sure, because I can't test. There are three things what might need modification:
  1. Search method/application's name
  2. Time given for the X server to bring the window to foreground
  3. Closing method? Does alt+F4 work? Do we need to use cursor instead?
