Can you please restore C-g.

It is the way we are all used to interrupting things.

R runs the command dired-do-rename.

When asked the question

Overwrite `/tmp/dd'? [Type yn!q or C-h]

you don't allow us to type C-g anymore.

You force us to type q instead.

Why can't you just map C-g to q in this case?

Yes you can still have your q and we could still have our C-g.
