Forget about the name Panic and also about the interruption keys. There is no new button. Right now, when using "Windows" -> "Close all windows" only those that were not edited are closed. And I think that even workspaces or other things, remind open. What Guillermo did was to change the behavior of "Close all windows" so that ot REALLY closes ALL opened windows, even if there had unsaved changes. This behavior of closing everything was quite similar to what is known as "panic button" in other dialects...this is why the relation. I think this change is very useful.
