Not sure if this in "stupid" but it isn't intuitive. Start to change a
dive. Then hit CANCEL. This pops a dialogue box with two options:
1. Close without saving.
2. Cancel
Hmm. Since I pressed Cancel should I keep going down that path
(introspective question). I'm not really "Closing" anything. I think
it is the wording that struck me as odd.
Since the description in the box above the two buttons is "You are about
to discard your changes" perhaps the two buttons should be:
1. Discard changes.
2. Keep Changes.
Note, pressing CANCEL after pressing CANCEL does indeed CANCEL the
CANCEL. And if you followed that on the first pass -- well, I'm needing
to head to bed on this thought!
