Bug ID: 506788
Summary: "Quit Dolphin" wording is misleading and should be
changed
Classification: Applications
Product: dolphin
Version First 25.04.3
Reported In:
Platform: Neon
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general

SUMMARY
The "ctrl+q" shortcut is normally used to quit an application so that all of
its windows are closed simultaneously (see for example Firefox or LibreOffice).
Dolphin does not do this and it instead treats ctrl+q as an alternative to
alt+F4, so it only closes the active window. If there are multiple tabs open,
it shows a dialogue that asks the user whether they would like to close the
entire window, to close the selected tab or to do nothing. The text for the
first option is however "quit Dolphin", which would lead one to believe that it
would actually *quit Dolphin* and therefore close *all* windows.
The text should therefore be changed to represent the actual action being
carried out, which is "close current window", similarly to "close current tab".
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open multiple tabs
2. Press ctrl+q
OBSERVED RESULT
Dolphin misleadingly asks whether to "quit Dolphin".
EXPECTED RESULT
Dolphin asks whether to close the current window.
