Deleting a connector

I'm not sure about that, but I have the feeling that the deletion of a connector sometimes is executed without any confirmation while sometimes I get asked. What's wrong?

I do this so automatically that I have trouble examining how it happens. I think the dialog that asks you about this is a little bit like the one for dragging instances versus classes onto a diagram. If I remember correctly the dialog not only asks you for confirmation but allows you to (re)set the default.

Make sure you are not (sometimes) pressing cntl-delete. I can do this without thinking when I know I want to remove the connector from the model. It would be very easy to set this to the default behavior at the same time.

Take this with a grain of salt though, since when I tried it I noticed my fingers making the decisions, no matter how hard I tried to control it from elsewhere.

I only use ctrl-del with elements, never with connectors. However, I have the feeling that the confirmation dialog appears somehow arbitrarily.
