Closing the frameless doors

This is my first car with frameless doors. I notice my wife usually closes the door by the window, and i wonder if this is something to worry about (besides the windows getting fingerprints).

Have any of you found problems? Do you find yourself doing the same? I guess this is something you get used to with time, but just wanted to share this small thought.

I would strongly discourage this. The loading force against the window over time may be detrimental, as I was advised by Service Advisor. At a minimum, she should reach for the top of the door sheetmetal or even better, the handle.
