Both iTerm and IntelliJ-based IDE's have a setting requiring a dialog confirmation before quitting. That will prevent these shenanigans to an extent.

But still, this is pretty bad on Apple's part.

But only after "randomly" closing every other possible program you have open. Might as well restart when iTerm and Webstorm are the only things left.

Well I often have several manually started servers/processes running in both iTerm and Webstorm so these are (by far) the most painful to restart. But yeah, it sucks.
