Hi:

I have been reading this site:

https://christiantietze.de/posts/2019/10/emacs-quit-special-windows/

and I am wondering why we don't provide an option to enable this
behaviour by default in some cases without needing the "hack" in the
link. It doesn't seems to be too complex to implement right?

I know it is just a detail, but in some cases (like when using man or
compile mode, or reading a function documentation, or after executing
magit commands) it doesn't make sense to keep the buffer in the buffer
list after pressing q in 90% of the times.

Could we consider to add this as (for example) an option to enable it by
default OR add a customisable list with the modes where the user could
desire to have this behaviour?

Best,
Ergus
