Bug Description

Although I already found that a similar proposal that opted for Ctrl + Shift + W was commented before in https://bugs.launchpad.net/pantheon-terminal/+bug/804910, I was wondering why Ctrl + W is not the hotkey for closing tabs in Terminal as it is in other applications such as Scratch or Midori. For consistency, it appears to me that it is a good option.

I'm not sure about other shells, but BASH uses Control + W to delete text up to the last white space. It would need to be Ctrl + Shift + W.
