We should find a standard icons set to express the global actions:
- "view all"
- "delete all"
- "unwatch all"
etc.

An example is the watchlist table of items, where the global action for
"delete" has the same icon with the items specific "delete" action. This
is confusing, and the user might click it without knowing what will be the
result of his action.

We could also add a way to request the confirmation of user's actions (for
example the "delete" or "unwatch" action). And this should be
configurable, in the admin interface, the general section, by checking the
"Request for confirmation ... " option.

Raluca.
