First, the quit from the file menu doesn't go thru Squeak to quit, 
thus no chance to ask you what to do. I have suggested that we queue 
an event on the event queue that we are quitting, thus letting the 
image put up a prompt and or take what ever action is acceptable, for 
a read only image we could just quit for example.

The other choice here is to put up a mac dialog to allow you to 
choose between quit or save and quit which then allows you to quit no 
save if the  VM is in some broken state, passing the event up to 
Squeak to have it handle it might not work in some cases.

For the curious, every 1/2 second the VM will call the routine to 
queue events from the OS UI. That doesn't mean the VM needs to 
process them, but they are read from the OS.


PS Bet your caps lock key was down, I'm going to alter this in 3.0.8 
so caps lock does not set the shift is down attribute, this was a 
request made earlier by SqC this week in fact.

Thoughts?
