Description
I am an avid user of wordpress and find wordpress (almost) perfect.
After I accidentally deleted the entire menu yesterday for the second time, I’ve now found the cause.
I am asking the wordpress team to make a change that will avoid this accidental deletion.
If you edit a menu and want to delete a single (!) menu item, this is possible via a corresponding link at the end of the menu item. If the menu item is not scrolled to the end, the link for deleting the entire (!) menu comes to the fore and if you are not careful, you mix up the two links and – the menu is gone.
My request / my suggestion: Place the link for deleting the entire menu somewhere else so that you no longer run into this “danger”.

Moving the Save button was already proposed in ticket:40822#comment:28.
This would be one case where the sticky footer is not ideal (added in #51631). Maybe the Save Menu button could be placed before the delete link.
