Do You Use The Ctrl-W Keyboard Shortcut?
Answered
By default, Ctrl-W is mapped to "Select word at caret".
Do many people use this?
Most web browsers have Ctrl-W mapped to close active tab.
Close active tab in IDEA is mapped as Ctrl-Shift-F4.
I know that I can change my keymap to whatever I want, but I am interested in what other people think about the Ctrl-W mapping.
As you can probably tell, I'd like Close Active Tab to be Ctrl-W by default. :)

For those who say that CTRL+F4 is a stretched palm….have you tried to use your right hand for the CTRL (assuming here that you have 2 hands and that you have seen the CTRL key on the right side of your keyboard) and the left for the F4 ? :-)
