** Description changed:

  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.
+ 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

** Changed in: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed
