opening magit full-frame then restoring windows on q (alien.top)

I'd like magit-status to open full frame, ie a single window. When I hit q to exit, I'd like my previous window configuration to be restored.

What's the best way to do this? Setting the follow var causes it to open full frame, but removes all windows except for one upon exit:

 (setq magit-display-buffer-function
  #'magit-display-buffer-fullframe-status-v1)

I can get to my previous window layout with winner-undo, but I'd like q to do the right thing in this case.

Any thoughts?

Might be able to do it with the hooks that run on entry and exit of the magit-status buffer? Save the window configuration on entry, reload it on exit?
