Feature Request: Customize confirmation prompt before exit. #2976

Description

@gdevacc12

Feature request: A confirmation prompt before terminal app exit.
For example, if there are multiple tabs open, upon initiation of exit a prompt to confirm or cancel exit.

Particularly with the case when multiple tabs open, prompting the user to think before closing multiple tabs may prevent a accidental loss of work/processing in tabs that are not in the foreground.

Perhaps make the prompt configurable in settings with the options:

  • disabled (no prompt before exit)
  • multiple (prompt if multiple tabs open)
  • always (prompt always before exit - for a check before closing even a single open tab)
