(add-hook 'kill-buffer-hook 'View-quit 'append 'local)

?

Yeah, I know, if somebody else does (add-hook ... 'append 'local)
later they will be hosed; maybe `add-hook' needs a MUST-BE-LAST-P
argument and error or warn if 'must-be-last has already been used?

Or view-mode could rebind C-x k to something that does the equivalent
of a before advice which checks if the buffer to kill is the current
buffer, and if so does an add-one-shot-hook.
