Well, I pointed out what I plan to do.
If making it a bit more difficult to destroy the playlist, iPeng is
already 98% there: Just switch the play mode to "add next" or "add" and
the default for tracks in albums/playlists will change to adding a
track. In all other places iPeng can identify it does already bring up
a context menu instead of playing immediately, Trash playlist does have
a confirm dialog and deleting single tracks requires at least two
actions (select and trash).
That leaves Random Play, Dynamic Playlist and Pandora (AFAIK) for
accidental trashing.

_Always_ bringing up a menu as a default: over my dead body. iPeng is
designed to be the most efficient remote control for the Squeezebox and
I won't compromise here. Plus these popups annoy me to death. That alone
would be a reason for me not to use Sonos.

And if I add an option for party mode I can just as well do as I
mentioned above and it will be more secure since except for a few
uncaught exceptions (Pandora) it will actually even prevent destructive
behavior.
