Does anyone know the control key or key sequence that makes Thunderbird

ctrl-W or alt-F4, but only if you haven't entered/modified any content.

I my case I had, but I've noticed that the sequence Ctrl-Z Ctrl-S Crtl-W
will do it. I suppose it's not impossible to enter that sequence by
mistake while fumbling over the keyboard. I've looked for a way to
disable Ctrl-W, but not found one.
