Bug Description

Binary package hint: blender

I propose that you add so that Blender asks for confirmation when you choose "Save default settings" in the File menu.
I had opened someone else .blend file, and wanted to choose "Load factory settings" when I accidentally clicked on "Save default settings".

This caused problems for me, since it changed my my default workspace that I had configured as I wanted it.

So I propose that it ask for confirmation like "Do you really want to save these settings as the default settings?".

You could try adding that one to http://www.blenderstorm.org/ . In general Blender does not use a lot of confirmations. This is might be something that will be looked upon during the development cycle of the next major version, 2.50.

I believe it has not been fixed.

This has apparently been renamed to "Save User Settings" (Ctrl+U)
