Change close all window menu shortcut from Ctrl+Shift+W to Ctrl+Q (1.30 KB, patch)

Description Dylan McCall 2010-04-15 02:34:06 UTC 
Pressing Ctrl+Shift+W in Nautilus causes every single open tab to be closed. This interaction in other applications (most apparently Gedit) only closes documents or tabs in the current window.
Comment 1 Dylan McCall 2010-04-17 16:12:08 UTC 
This is coming from downstream, https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/563226

The original reporter suggests adding a Quit option, with the Ctrl+Q shortcut, that does what Ctrl+Shift+C does today.
Comment 2 Allan Day 2010-06-21 21:35:06 UTC 
Seems like the issue is more around the existence of this rather non-standard menu entry, rather than the shortcut itself. I don't know why Nautilus doesn't have Quit.

I'll try and find out what the reasoning is.

From the dupe (can we have one upstream bug for one downstream bug, please?! ;) ): 

"The original description was a bit unclear , the intended change in shortcuts
would be:

Ctrl+W: Close current tab (and close the window when the last tab closes)
Ctrl+Q: Close all open Nautilus windows

Shift+Ctrl+W: Close current window (and all the tabs if present)"

Changing title for clarity and adding Alex to get his opinion.
