Title:
  Too easy to accidentally close tabs with shortcut keys

Status in GNOME Terminal:
  Confirmed
Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in gnome-terminal source package in Lucid:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

  ctrl-shift-q has a confirmation dialog, but ctrl-shift-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-shift-q or ctrl-shift-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.

  Intrepid, with gnome-terminal 2.24.1-0ubuntu1
