No, please don't. Your fresh point of view is valuable on many levels.
Feedback is good. Don't go getting shy on us.

You've made a good case that the behavior you want would be a good
change, though I think I'd like the IDE to just warn me that the stack
has requested a "quit" and ask if I want to proceed. That would give us
the best of both worlds.
But for sure you should document it. I would request it as a feature
rather than a bug because the current behavior doesn't look like a
mistake to me, but as you say, they can change the status if they want to.
