Sounds like they haven't used IE 10 on Windows 8, swiping down brings up a list of open tabs at the top, the ability to make a new tab and the url bar appears at the bottom of the page, with a button to reload the page...

Posted from IE 10 in Windows 8.

It mentions that in the second sentence.

	Quote: As with that browser, it's designed to be a more lean-back experience where gestures take over from buttons – as you might imagine, left and right swipes move backwards or forwards, while a swipe down from the top of the page will reload it (it would close the app in IE 10 or 11).

A swipe down doesn't close the app, it opens the list of active tabs.
