To reduce confusion (people on IRC said it was still a bit unclear),
here's what we're proposing:

* On Mac & Linux, since they have the Cmd-Q shortcut to quit the
browser, we want to warn users that they're about to close all their
tabs (or quit) when they do it using the keyboard shortcut *only*.

  * In that dialog, *do* offer the option to not ask again, for the
people who just want this to quit automatically.

* Quitting the application by using the menu or using the window close
button (Windows & Linux only) will not trigger any warning. (Restoring
your previous session should be even more discoverable once the new
about:home design lands, which seems to be on track to make Firefox
4.0.)

Let me know if anything is missing or unclear.
