Big deal. Assuming that the reason given by lubavitchers why the rebbe would hold a handkercheif is correct and assuming that big deal is asking a question seriously, I would say that there is big difference btw klois hanefesh= ecstasy of the SOUL ,that the neshama escapes the body before the proper time (like Nadav and avihu, the Torah says that their bodies remained intact and Rashi says that Moshe said that they were greater than him and aharon), and the actual time that is given for the BODY to pass away.
