Actually, for me that has been the only reason I ever accidentally End Turn. My computer is set to Dvorak by default, but I usually use QWERTY for Dominions--and if I hit 'D' for "province Defence", immediately after starting a game and before switchiing to QWERTY, the key 'D' is 'E' in Dvorak and it ends my turn. Much frantic process-killing ensues, to try to stop Dom3 before it finishes turn computation and saves the files to disk. Fortunately Dom3 often takes several minutes to process on my machine so I'm usually okay.

However, this is one of the main reasons I have taken to automatically backing up my files every turn via the --postexec command. The other reason is so that I can figure out what magic sites were in province X that I just lost.
