Sorry, Neil. I disagree here.
Most commodities use "Hide" to hide the GUI and "Quit" to quit the
application. If I hit any button which gives me an "Are you sure?"
option and I say "No", I expect the application to leave everything as
it was. If the button says "Quit" and I change my mind, I don't
want the application making some arbitrary decision as to what I
really meant.
My suggestion would be to add a "Hide" button and make them both
behave intuitively.
