Really? This seems like a recipe for mistakes and easy data loss.

If I read the patch right, there's no confirmation etc, so now just
mistakenly pressing the Del key will delete dives. That sounds like a
fairly easy way for somebody to fatfinger things and lose data.

Do we need an undo stack so the user can undo the last few actions?
