I am surprised this issue doesn't bother more people but it certainly bothers
me.  

The dialog doesn't even make for polite conversation between me and my
computer.  My computer asks "Do you want to save your changes?".  Intuitively,
I would respond "Yes" or "No", that is "yes, save" or "no, don't save".  Why
this save and discard business?

And more importantly from a user interface perspective, why choose two
characters right next to each other on the keyboard.  It is so easy to hit the
"D" key instead of the "S" key and then we are back to the good old days of
early computers when a person spent hours or even days creating a document only
to have a silly little mistake dump all of that effort down the gurgler.

Why not choose the keys Q and L at opposite ends of the keyboard?  You know Q
for "Quash my changes" and "L for Leave my precious changes alone".  Or at the
very least stick with a well established paradigm and use Yes and No.
