The issue with doing this when there are several sitelinks is that people will unknowingly merge items this way that should not be merged. That'd be a huge pita. We'll need to put some good thinking into this still. I have no good solution right now. > This should be very easy to change.

Showing the dialog and requiring people to click would probably annoy people for having to click one additional time? Especially if their intention is clear.
