I started looking at it last night, but I spent most of my time getting familiar with the changes to BPM and how that impacts the add-on. The quit function currently in place works when launching the old BPM which tells me that function hasn't changed. The reason it's not closing is because the new BPM window name has changed, so the add-on doesn't detect steam opening, so it never gets to the point of quitting Kodi.
As a temporary half work around you can add
-oldbigpicture
To the "parameters to pass to steam" option in the add-on to bring back the old BPM and get the add-ons half working again. Note this only works when launching the add-on when steam is not running at all... If it's running it will launch the new BPM and you get the problem described above.
@-Glass- has posted some code which will help getting the add-on working with new BPM, but I need to think about if I want to add support for both versions of the BPM ui. I know the steam documentation says old BPM will be removed in the future, but we're talking about valve-time here. Also, after a quick play around with the new interface, I think I prefer the old one.
