I use vimperator, so the only program I use a lot which still doesn't recognize ctrl+w is Hexchat.

My friends have gotten used to see me part the channel and rejoin shortly after, cursing my fingers.

Hexchat closing on C-w is such a pain! It can't be scripted away either because it's hardcoded in the source. I haven't looked into this for some time but there does seem to have been some updates.

HexChat parting on Ctrl+w is probably one of the main reasons that drove me to use a TUI IRC client like weechat.
