For what must be the dozenth time, I&#39;ve just accidentally deleted a large tree by typing C-k while in a headline.  <div><br></div><div>This is really easy to do because emacs users have &quot;C-k deletes to the end of the line&quot; worn deeply into their neural pathways -- it&#39;s so automatic for me that the keystroke is close to subconscious.  A mistaken C-k is especially hard to detect because org-mode displays the result exactly like what your subconscious expects, that is, a collapsed headline is deleted to the end -- and the tree underneath is wiped out with no noticeable warning.<div>

<div><br><div>Feature request: add an option preventing tree deletion with C-k without user confirmation.  Actually, I&#39;d like an option to prevent it period.</div></div></div><div><br></div><div>If this option is already in there, then you&#39;re encouraged to tell me to RTFM.  But then also please tell me where it is, because I can&#39;t find it.</div>

<div><br></div><div>Thanks much,</div><div><br></div><div>Scott</div></div>
