Another case is when you install in the existing partitions and in the
partitioning screen you choose the partitions, /, /home, etc, and you have
checked in the checkbox a partition to be formatted.

It seems very logical to me that in this step a confirmation is more than
usefull.
Before a 2-3 years there was a brainstorm in mandriva and i had proposed
the usage of confirmation dialogues. I cannot find the link now, but the
answers that i got was like 'you click on OK so you have to be sure', 'no
needed, useless feature' etc.

If there will be a brainstorm in mageia, i would like to try to propose it
again.
