[pve-devel] [PATCH xtermjs v2 4/4] ui: prevent accidental closing of terminal window

[Dominik Csapak <d.csapak@proxmox.com>]

this prevents closing the window e.g. when pressing ctrl+w

most browsers have a function to block a website from doing that,
so users that do not want that, simply have to click that option

also, the message will (at least in chrome) not be displayed,
instead a fixed message will appear
