I just tried this (GnuCash 2.6.15 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS) and GnuCash did NOT
behave the way you described -- it closed as expected.

HOWEVER ... after I typed Ctrl-S I waited until the status indicator at the
bottom of the window finished its "writing data" animation before typing
Ctrl-Q.

Could it be that you typed the Save command and the Quit command in rapid
succession?
