The CTRL+W thing was a bizzare decision, I agree.

Just swap the CTRL+F4/CTRL+W and ALT+INS/CTRL+N bindings and IDEA behaves like every other piece of software in the world.

[incepted]

I know, but that wasn't my point. I actually chose to keep Ctrl-w and extend it to other tools, because I use this functionality in an IDE much, much more often than closing windows.

It makes sense, but it's not user friendly, which is the point I was making.
