One of my embarrassing moments ... Sent a partial message accidentally in IRC meeting by hitting “Enter” instead of “Backspace” ☹

    Hi!
    
    I can't tell you the number of times I've typed or pasted one of these:
    
    :wq
    
    or
    
    1407gg
    
    or
    
    ggVG
    
    or
    
    :find nova/compute/resource_tracker.py
    
    or
    
    Vgq
    
    or
    
    tox -py27 -- --failing
    
    Such is the life of a keyboard-driven contributor I guess! :)
