Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

ctrl-alt-q has a confirmation dialog, but ctrl-alt-w does not and can be
easily triggered for example if you aim badly when doing ctrl-a (a
common key combo in bash and console programs) and also depress the keys
above ctrl and a, resulting in a ctrl-alt-q or ctrl-alt-w, the latter of
which will instantly close your window, causing interruption of workflow
and sometimes loss of work.

Both shortcuts can be disabled thankfully, but I wonder if these
shortcut keys ought to be left off by default or remapped.

** Affects: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
