UI Suggestion to avoid accidental deletion of entire menu

[brendantmf]

On the page to edit menus, the button to delete the entire menu is dangerously close to the option that removes a single menu item and the button that saves the menu changes. When you’re moving quickly it’s a very easy mistake to make, especially when the “remove” option isn’t visible on the screen. It’d be great if the button to “Delete Menu” could be moved off to the right or to some place where one needs to be more intentional about taking such a drastic action.

I have added the justify-content: space-between; style to move the delete menu button to the right side.

Thanks for your contribution!

However, this was intentionally set up in this way in #56594, to improve the proximity of related menu items, as part of the overall task in #40822.

That doesn't mean that there aren't improvements that can be made; but currently the major prevention for accidentally deleting a menu is the prominent browser alert confirming the action, so that the deletion requires two steps to actually occur.

For now, I'm going to close this as a wontfix, since it was very much an intentional choice; but feel free to continue the conversation.
