User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020826

I'm an idiot... I keep closing my Mozilla browser when I have several tabs open,
and I lose them all!

I would like to see a user-defeatable 'exit confirmation' dialog that prompts
the user if they really want to exit the browser, especially when the "X" close
button is used...

By user-defeatable, I mean that it could be a checkbox in preferences.  I
couldn't find one there, but maybe it's there and I'm an even bigger idiot then
I thought?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use Mozilla because it's really good
2. Stupidly click "X" when you want to close just one tab
3. Curse that you just lost 4-5 open pages...

Actual Results:  
I was mad.

Expected Results:  
It would be nice if it asked me: "Do you really want to exit?"... then hopefully
I would be smart enough to click "no" and continue on my merry way.

a general Exitonfirmation is wontfix.
it's a dupe if you want it for windows with open tabs
