Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: usb-creator

Something horrible happened to me today, but with testdisk and quick
reaction i got all my files back.

If you have usb-stick and a removable harddisk attached, and you dont
look at it at 100 % (difference between /dev/sdc and sdb) you can format
your harddisk without beeing asked again, just with one click!

I consider myself as an experienced user, but this happened to me today
(totaly my own fault) But still, it would be great if before formatting
the stick you ask again:

"Are you shure you want do format /dev/sdx &PARTITIONDESCRIPTIONS this
will delete all your data at this drive"

thats a typical thing you suspect to be asked before really formatting a
drive. Hope you consider this.
