I remember asking for something like this before and being told that overwrite all was an exteremely bad idea, not something you would want to hit accidentally. Cannot put my finger on it but hopefully someone how has seen similar cases before can suggest a solution to address the bigger picture rather than optimising the specifics of the dialog. > I don't want to commit this change only to change it again shortly > afterwards, so is this okay or should the order be changed? > [1] http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=130782 Very wise of you to ask, hope someone can come up with an equally wise solution.
