If I have multiple tabs open, and I try to close the window (File -> Close
Window), I am asked if I really want to do that (if browser.tabs.warnOnClose is
true). However, if I try to exit (Firefox -> Quit Firefox), I'm not asked
anything (despite possibly closing multiple windows).

This is especially frustrating for those of us who make mistakes when typing
(since CMD-W is so close to CMD-Q).

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. set browser.tabs.warnOnClose to true
2. open a browser window with several tabs
3. try to close the window (you'll be given a warning)
4. click cancel
5. try to quit

Actual Results:  
It silently killed everything.

Expected Results:  
I expected to be warned.
fixed in latest builds; don't remember the bug number.
