I think there is a difference between ActionDeleteTiddlerWidget and tm-delete-tiddler. Only the latter generates a confirmation dialogue.
$:/core/ui/Buttons/delete uses tm-delete-tiddler. The confirmation message is in $:/language/ConfirmDeleteTiddler -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
