I suppose it9s a matter of what one is used to, but in order to get used to
anything it has to be consistent across all environments.
Where I9m coming from is that Mac OS X seems to be moving somewhat away from
overly 3safe2 or paternalistic behavior, towards more productive or
efficient behavior. For myself, I would rather be forced to pay closer
attention and be able to work faster, rather than the other way around. I
prefer one click to two, where possible.
