Well "close" yes, but I like "simpler", and I'm not sure I like the
idea of waiting for someone to flail at the quit command before giving
them a hint.
Also, to be frank, if someone's typed "quit<cr>" and you're going to
perform an action based on it, it feels like you might as well quit -
a bit like google saying "did you mean \q" in its sneering
supercilious way.
