Hey Benno,
Like the idea, and ^O^Q definitely makes sense as the proper keystrokes.
I had trouble getting the patch to apply to 2.5.0 but I assume it works
against trunk.
I really think we need a do_yesno_prompt for "are you sure you want to
lose all changes" before we bail on the editor, especially
if the current buffer is modified.
