Description Jeremy Bicha 2012-12-31 02:50:18 UTC 
gnome-terminal 3.7.0 adds an app menu but is missing the 'Quit' button in the app menu that is present in all other GNOME 3 apps that use the app menu.

I think one reason for this button is that when a GNOME 3 app is maximized, there is no X button in the top right corner to close the app from.

I see no reason why one would want to 'quit' the server process; it auto-quits when all windows are closed.
Comment 2 Allan Day 2013-05-15 10:02:15 UTC 
Quit there as a convenient way to close all windows at once. Conceptually it is good to have it in the application menu also, since the application menu is for global control over the app.

Since we have quit in all the other application menus, it is also good to have this for consistency.

I'm a bit confused now. Shouldn't the resolution of this bug be WONTFIX or INVALID instead of FIXED?
Comment 6 Zeeshan Ali 2013-12-09 14:51:57 UTC 
Ah nevermind, I misread comment#2. :) Christian, I suggest use of `git bz push` instead of 'git push' so that commits could be traced to appropriate bugs and viceversa.
