gmail discard button too prominent on android.
When using gmail on the android G! phone through T-mobile, why is the discard button so prominent. I can't tell you the number of times I've been part way through a long email and I end up deleting it. There is no delete confirmation and there seems to be no place to retrieve deleted messages either. This is the sole reason why I started using other programs to write email on my phone. It seems like it should be a simple fix to at least provide the option of confirmation before deleting drafts. Maybe I just haven't found it and it is there somewhere.
I’m annoyed

Inappropriate?I've only had the phone for 2 days, and it's already happened to me twice. Obviously, it's my fault for allowing my finger to touch the discard button, but it seems incredibly easy for this to happen: I use the screen to scroll up and down to an earlier part of the email which I want to review, or sometimes my finger will be resting near the edge of the screen and just slip over the corner ... and then the next thing I know is "MESSAGE DISCARDED" @#$%^&!! I hate rewriting things I've already spend some 10 or 15 minutes composing.
I would propose that there should be a confirmation screen when deleting the draft. It might also be good if the discard button should be accessible only after you click the Menu button. Anyway ... this needs to be fixed.
Other than this, I love the phone.

Inappropriate?Well my view on this is that it should have a 3 seconds count down on the discard button. you keep pressing it until it goes to zero, and only then it gets discarded

Inappropriate?This is fixed in Donut 1.6
It pops up a button asking if we are sure.
