Erm, CTRL + Q has never been the standard for anything.
It's CTRL + W for Exit/Quit, that the Macintosh introduced as part of a
OS-wide standard, which was later adopted in Windows.
ALT + F4 was kept for Close as it was already popular in a lot of DOS apps,
due to it being the Exit key in Wordperfect (may have been Wordstar).
