Description Nataniel 2022-04-29 09:46:08 UTC
SUMMARY
***
The "Delete" button on overview effect, symbolized by a thrash icon, can easily be clicked on unintentionally, resulting in the unwanted deletion of a Virtual Desktop and re-shuffling of present windows on a remaining virtual desktop. 

***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Overview Effect
2. Try to select a virtual desktop
3. Accidentally click on delete virtual desktop

OBSERVED RESULT
One finds him/herself with one less virtual desktop, when he/she only wanted to switch desktop.
Happened to me several times already!

EXPECTED RESULT
Either the button is not so easily clickable, or a "confirm deletion" dialog shows up, allowing one to discard the unwanted deletion.
