278100 - Application does not prompt before quitting when cmd+q is hit

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 52821

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[java designer]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041217
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041217

Mozilla MUST MUST MUST prompt or ask the user if
they want to quit when the user enters cmd+q 
on the keyboard. 

I've hit cmd+q many times by mistake (for example,
when trying to hit cmd+w) AND HAVE LOST all open
mozilla windows AND ALL TABS because mozilla just
quits WITHOUT PROMPTING THE USER if they want 
to quit..

THIS IS FRUSTRATING BEYOND BELIEF.

PLEASE FIX FIX FIX FIX FIX THIS.

FIX IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. cmd + q on the keyboard by mistake
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
browser quits without prompting user

Expected Results:  
ask user if they want to quit (the windows version
does this even if you close a window with multiple
tabs open, the mac version closes all windows
and tabs without asking the user).

See Bug 39057 'Confirmation alert ("dialog") when choosing File > Quit | Exit'

Dup of Bug 52821 "too easy to hit CTRL+Q instead of CTRL+W"

Simply removing the shortcut (optionally only when more than one window
is open) might be O.K. for most people

Yes, this is a request feature!

It is very easy to press command-q instead of command-1 (which cycles open
windows) and lose everything!

It should be better to have a dialog panel that asks: ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO
QUIT???

Thanks!
