I just checked this with a current build running on Ubuntu 19.10. It seems that - at least for me - pressing the ESC key has no effect. Maybe this is limited to SDL1? |

The reason I never merged this was because hitting escape by mistake and then losing everything unsaved has happened to me far too many times for me to think this is a good idea. |
|
What if instead of a single escape press it was multiple or duration based to alleviate accidental quits? |
|
Or just use alt-f4 for both sdl1 and sdl2? |

While SDL2 will quit the application when Alt+F4 is pressed, SDL1 does not. This makes it difficult to exit the application when it was started in full-screen.
This was tested with Linux and X11, although this behavior may differ on other platforms.
