VM 5.32.

It would be really incredibly nice if it were possible to give
vm-confirm-quit a value that would mean VM would ask before quitting a
folder if the folder were larger than a certain size in bytes.  I propose
that a numeric value for vm-confirm-quit should have this meaning.

This is because it takes VM so long to load in large folders.  I don't
mind accidentally quitting a small folder, but it is a real pain when I
accidentally quit a large folder.  I don't want to have to be queried
about small folders.
