2015-01-06 23:43:56 Michał Sawicz description Steps: * open messaging app * drag one of the items on the list to the right * tap on the trash icon Expected: * only today's messages are removed or at least there's a confirmation dialog Current: * whole history of messaging with a contact is removed The fact that conversations are separated by days suggests as if a single item was a conversation within that day. But in fact they're complete conversations just ordered by date (which is actually different than the phone log, which *is* split by date, and removing an item there only affects a day's events). I wonder if it would be better to indeed show multiple entries for a single contact, in each day a message was sent either way, this being a shortcut to a certain message when opening. It feels like this would be better in the long run (imagine many years of messaging history). That might desire another bug though.

This would place an unnecessary 3rd step in place. It wouldn't make much sense to delete just today's messages, because you are removing the whole conversation. The behaviour of removing the whole message with a contact is intended.

As an additionally security measure we could introduce an additional confirmation dialog.
