I also recently started using the "pin file" feature and was surprised that
after spamming CTRL + W the pinned files were closed.
I have no suggestions yet on what I expect to happen, but that they got
closed was unexpected.

Thinking about it a bit it might make sense to close all editors and keep
the pinned ones in the open documents list.
It sounds counterproductive since then they are not opened anymore, thus
they don't fit in the list (new list or renamed panel?)

What I don't want is to get 'stuck' on a pinned file when I try to close
everything but the pinned ones with the shortcut.
And then again, perhaps a shortcut to "close all except the pinned ones" is
the correct way to handle this and then get stuck on a pinned one with a
warning or indication as other people mentioned in this discussion.
