[suggestion] Delete files by mistake? no more...
Posted: 2006-12-09, 18:21 UTC
The most common situation (at least for me) to unintentionally delete something I didn't want is when I have something different in mind (read: under cursor) while some other files/dirs are already selected.
Solution should be simple (at least for me to write:) - when cursor is X (optional & configurable) files/dirs away from any selected object or selected object is not on screen the default action should be "NO". Some additional info. in delete confirmation dialog would be welcomed, but "hardcore" users who ignores confirmation dialogs. If user has turned off confirmation dialog it may appear anyway.
