Description of the new feature/enhancement

Usually when I want to use quake mode i only want to open the terminal to type a short command or two. I don't want to rehit the key combination to close it. Any click outside the terminal should just close it (=when its losing focus) because when I am not actively working in the terminal it is in the way especially on small screens.
ConEmu has this feature and it really helps

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

Setting: Close Quake window when it looses focus
