Bug 406593: Usability issue: destructive titlebar actions
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D406593



--- Description ---
In the "Window Actions and Behavior" dialog in the "Titlebar Actions" tab t=
he
action "Close" can be assigned to many actions, which can lead to data loss.
For example an admin could have changed the default behavior to "Close" but=
 the
users using the computer are unfamilar with that, then they can easily lose
data just by clicking the title bar. It can be reproduced easily, for examp=
le:

1. change the left button action in the titlebar from "Raise"/"Activate &
Raise" to "Close"
2. click at the titlebar of a window with the left mouse button

OBSERVED RESULT
The window closes.

EXPECTED RESULT
The window shouldn't close.

Either the action "Close" should be removed from those events to fix this or
the actions shouldn't be configurable at all. Of course I'll gladly provide
additional information or patches if needed.
