Description: Several times now, I have accidentally  *  deleted *  a project, when I wanted to wipe  titse  its  workspace.

Obvious usability rules:
- menu entries for dangerous actions should *NOT be near* every day actions
- confirmation messages for dangerous actions should *NOT look similar* to more harmless actions

Jenkins fails both:
- the "Delete Project" entry is sitting between "Build Now" and "Configure"
- the warning message for wiping out the workspace looks and works almost identical to the delete project warning. In fact, the "wipe workspace" warning even *looks more scary*, as it is in a big bold font, whereas the "delete project" warning is in a small normal font.

EDIT:
Since some versions, instead of a separate page, Jenkins now opens a confirmation dialog, which *looks completely identical* for both operations.
