I would assume because the GNOME people would like consistency across
the platform (that's what led to this discussion) and people feel it 
would be annoying to put in extra keystrokes to shift more interactive 
editors and other programs into a viewing mode where 'Q' would quit them.

Having 'Q' for some programs and 'CTRL-Q' for others would be annoying,
as this thread has shown.
