Yes. This is not good. There should be some way to better
control this, and determine if do_quit needs to be used.
This is the result of an emergency fix for some very bad
behavior. During start-up, it's very important that Tux Paint
respond to quit events. When I am running low on memory or
start Tux Paint with everything enabled and Electric Fence,
my system can become very unresponsive. There's also the
case of people who started Tux Paint by accident, which is
easy enough to do via a menu system.
