We do not draw conclusions solely based on volume of Bugzilla activity, and we certainly don't extrapolate that feedback across our entire user base blindly.

As mentioned already in this bug, we do not "wipe sessions and downloads" on Cmd+Q.

I'm not claiming there are no problems with our existing behavior worth addressing, just that this bug is no longer a useful place to track them. There are other bugs that already cover related issues (bug 667912, bug 565567, bug 404081, bug 628156), and I encourage people to file new, narrowly focused bugs if they have specific suggestions/issues not already covered.

At a very high level, I do not think we will be changing the "avoid prompting and make it easy to restore" stance.
