Description

Description of the problem or steps to reproduce

When editing debug-level logs, the file edited changes every second. Sometimes it asks to reload the file after pressing CTRL+Q, which does not make sense, as you are closing the file anyway. It is a waste of time to see that question.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue by editing a file that changes frequently, then press CTRL+Q while the reload prompt appears. Trace the reload confirmation and CTRL+Q handling to determine how closing should behave; done means CTRL+Q closes the file without asking to reload it.
