Description Colin 't Hart 2004-06-11 10:17:34 UTC 
Too often I accidently click on Delete Group's Articles instead of Mark Group Read.

Is it possible to add a confirmation dialog on this action?
Comment 1 devchan1 2006-07-29 17:02:33 UTC 
I would use this feature. I vote for this one.
Comment 2 Charles Kerr 2006-08-11 04:39:34 UTC 
It might be simpler to just put a separator in the menu between
the two items so that it's harder to accidentally hit the
'delete' option...?

0.107 patch.

Actually, IIRC the way 'old pan' handled this was to put
"delete group's articles" off by itself at the bottom of
the menu with a separator above it.  Here's a patch that
does the same thing in 0.107.
Comment 4 Charles Kerr 2006-12-07 05:35:46 UTC 
Marking this ticket as fixed:
"Mark Group Read" is nowhere near
"Delete Group's Articles" in the menus now.
