Public bug reported:
The New Tab keyboard shortcut is Shift+Ctrl+T, and the Close Tab
shortcut is Shift+Ctrl+W. On a Dvorak keyboard, T and W are right next
to each other (they are in the positions of K and comma on an English
QWERTY keyboard). Therefore it is too easy to hit Close Tab by mistake
when you want a new tab.
It would be nice if the Ctrl-Shift-W shortcut could ask for
confirmation, especially if a program is running. Or if it could be
disabled altogether.
(If you accidentally close a tab in Firefox, you can easily get it back.
But not so in Terminal - you might have had a very complex program
running in that tab....)
