I have added this combination as well. Now we have:

    When the user changes desktop or quits emacs, should the desktop be 
saved?
    (in the current desktop directory)
       t             -- always save.
       ask           -- always ask.
       ask-if-new    -- ask if no desktop file exists, otherwise just save.
       ask-if-exists -- ask if desktop file exists, otherwise don't save.
       if-exists     -- save if desktop file exists, otherwise don't save.
       nil           -- never save.
    The desktop is never saved when `desktop-enable' is nil.
