Using Iceweasel 24.1.0 and have "Warn me when closing multiple tabs" selected in preferences. There is no warning when I C-q out firefox--which usually happens by accident when I try to C-w to close the current tab. I would very much expect the "warn me when closing multiple tabs" to apply when I C-q.

When going to about:config in my configuration I see two booleans, browser.showQuitWarning and browser.warnOnQuit. In my case, .showQuitWarning is set to false while .warnOnQuit is set to true, and the box is checked in preferences as I said.

Whatever your stance on this bug, this is a confusing situation. I would like to have a single preference that would affect the close behavior one way or another.
