Duncan, do you think it's worth to comment this in R-devel list?

Tema: Re: [R] Avoiding Delete key function as 'Quit R' in Rterm when there are 
no characters in cursor line

I don't use term, but I've just tested it and this is reproducable.

Is it a bug? Not sure. If you hit c after getting the message it will cancel 
the q() request.

That looks to me like a bug, but I don't use Windows any more, so I
won't offer to try to fix it for you.  In fact I don't think Rterm has
many users at all:  most Windows users probably use RStudio or one of
the other graphical front ends (Visual Studio, Emacs, Rgui, etc.)

So maybe you can track down the issue, or someone else will try.  Or
maybe you'll just have to avoid triggering the bug (if it really is one).
