Yes, that was the context.
This is one of the proposed changes I do agree with. I never use the
whole-buffer buttons, but after setting custom-file to a junk file
(this is one instance where setting custom-file in a running Emacs
_is_ useful), I noticed that it is way to easy to accidentally click
on these buttons or accidentally hit return with point accidentally on
them. I believe that confirmation should be asked, dired style, with
a list of affected options. This situation has existed for a long
time now, so I do not believe that it is imperative to do this before
the release and I believe that it is better to wait.
This is a clearly implementable and limited change if we would decide
to do it. If we decide to do it after the release, then I believe
that there is no sense in discussing implementation details now.
Sincerely,
Luc.
