Done.

Meanwhile, jidanni and other users could use a redefinition
recommended by Stefan:

(global-set-key [remap quit-window]
  (lambda () (interactive) (quit-window (not current-prefix-arg))))

or

(define-key special-mode-map "q"
  (lambda () (interactive) (quit-window (not current-prefix-arg))))

v runs the command dired-view-file
When run on a normal file, a subsequent q is
q runs the command View-quit

But when run upon a .jpg file,
a subsequent q is
q runs the command quit-window

Which leaves the buffer sitting around in the buffer-list!
C-x C-b runs the command list-buffers

emacs-version "24.0.50.1"

I don't know how you will wish to solve this problem. But please don't
ask the user to do C-u q when finished viewing an image vs. q for when
finished viewing a text file.
