When I have the browser open, I frequently (but not always) close tabs 
with Ctrl-W.

However, I generally forget about the presence of Ctrl-Q to close out 
Seamonkey entirely, at least until I'm sloppy with pressing keys, and 
hit that one accidentally, and the result is that Seamonkey immediately 
closes with no further dialog.

I don't mind having the ability to close entirely with a shortcut, but 
on the occasions I do it accidentally, it is annoying to have everything 
closed immediately, without any confirmation.

I made checks of all the options in Edit -> Preferences, and also in 
about:config, and I don't see anything that would be like 
"Promptforexit" that is offered.

Is there something I'm missing, or does that function simply not exist?
