...which is why I recently went to about:keyboard and removed that hotkey. I love that page.
That, and Ctrl-N. No more forest of blank browser windows when using a terminal emulator in a web page!

Ctrl+W is undoable.
Ctrl+Shift+T will undo your recent tab closures in reverse order. The tabs maintain their history as well.
I am very surprised at how many people in here don’t seem to know that. I learned about Ctrl+Shift+T before I learned about Ctrl+W. I was using the middle mouse button on a tab to close tabs before then.
I know. I used to use it fairly often when Ctrl-W still did something. It helps, but (1) it doesn't work if you closed the last tab and thus the whole window, you'd need to restore recently closed windows instead; and (2) it is still more disruptive and potentially state-losing than preventing an unwanted close in the first place. Tab history retention isn't perfect.
