I second to this. Not only make it consistent, but simplify it as well.
I was a Windows developer a few years ago. There is a standard YesNoCancel MessageBox for such. This way each program writer does not have to create a new form for the message box, but use that built-in one. Simple, consistent, and development is also simpler. So maybe you should add this to Gnome API...
