Hasn't this been fixed and pushed into repos yet? I thought it was a

I'm glad my initial stubborness is leading to this avalanche of users
echoing me. I feel all your pain, I have been there and it sucks!
I would suggest this update/patch needs to go into not only the new
versions of Ubuntu, but also the LTS distribution repos also, as a
stability bugfix.

crontab -r deletes cron entries without asking for confirmation

I just wanted to mention that on many keyboards the letters e and r are
adjacent and that "crontab -e" is a very common command.
this increases the risk that someone might mistakenly delete his user crontab
while trying to edit it

Telling the user to manually back up a file because the program might

Hallo Anonymous,
there are a crontab for the system and a crontab for each user. You can make
your entries to /etc/crontab and have to be root to edit and remove.
To save your user crontab I think you have to back it up.
