Maybe for power users. Time based UI actions are not accessible, though. Novice users, elderly, those with lowered motor functions, etc will struggle with time-based interactions. In your example, you could use a dialog during the first delete with a toggle option in the delete confirmation dialogue of "don't show this next time."

That's not what the HCI research and general literature on this says. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_(computer_interface)#Assessment https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_(computer_interface)#Asse... The issue is that novice, elderly, power or otherwise, if you have dialogues popping up all the time asking you if you're sure, and 99% of the time you ARE sure, then pretty soon you will habituate to just hitting OK whatever until the one time you DON'T mean OK, at which point you have an undo. This isn't controversial, or just my opinion, it's observed, researched HCI stuff (mainly in the context of aircraft cockpit design but also on desktop software and the web).
