[josm-dev] How to ask for confirmation at layer deletion or exit?

[Holger Mappt]

Hi Vincent,

The idea behind requiresSomeAction() was to display a message like "use 
the layer context menu to store modified data" to tell the user that 
there is more than "save session", "delete/exit now", and "cancel". 
Kind of an "other ways to handle modified data" information in the 
SaveLayersDialog.  Just as information, not as real Java action.  But it 
might be too much information at that place.

Should I prepare a patch or just create a ticket?
