Obligatory dogpile, but I'm hoping for the day you can disable Ctrl-Q to prevent accidentally closing the browser with a single keystroke. It's impossible to do on Linux.

#22Good on them for actually tracking this feature request for over a decade and not just closing it after three weeks for “lack of interest.” Looking at you, every random GitHub project ever.

Having a revenue stream helps.
I've literally had issues I filed that the maintainer verified as an actual bug be closed due to lack of activity. I can understand that an unpaid maintainer doesn't have the time or motivation to fix it, but closing issues you know are valid seems insane to me.

You can set browser.quitShortcut.disabled=true in about config starting with Firefox 87.

Another favorite of mine: `browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab` set to `false`. This lets me cmd-w as many times as i want but it won't close the window I have open.

Does it? It's not like you're paying GitHub per open issue. I've literally had issues I filed that the maintainer verified as an actual bug be closed due to lack of activity.

#30If you're like me, and read the comments first, this change is about giving feedback on the scrollbar for a search. In other words, when you search for something, the scrollbar will give an idea how many results there are, and where on the page rhey are located. On another note, the comment uses IntelliJ as an example. Wow, that was 17 years ago! Happy to see my favorite editor be around for so long.
