Then there are applications that inconsistently prompt...

The Netbackup 4.5 Java GUI's like to prompt for inane little things 
but don't bother when you've request a destructive action (like cancelling
all backups).

Well, having said all of that....some instances of the "are you sure" 
syndrome can be eliminated.  If you get it when you use the rm,cp or mv 
commands, take a look at your aliases.  You can change those.  For other 
programs, I agree its just annoying.  I use xcdroast to burn CDs.  I 
really like it, EXCEPT that it always asks me if I really want to quit. 
There's nothing that I can do about that one, except <sigh>.
