Depends on the user, really. I work with software developers who specifically requested a confirmation dialog box be added to the current release, because they were clicking a Clear button that nuked their whole setup file without an Undo capability. So that was fresh in my mind the day that this request came up. And we have confirmation dialog boxes in other spots (feeding pets for example) so while this isn't the best fix, it's what was asked for here.

That being said: I don't disagree with you that they're annoying when overused, and expert users need to have a way to not have them. I know where the Fix Character Values controls are, and I personally wouldn't need a confirm dialog box because of it - but this isn't the first time we've had this request type either.

A Last Click status field might be the better way to go, y'think?
