I agree with Kai: Asking for confirmation in this case is not the approach we 
should take.
What this definitely calls for is an undo function, which should certainly not 
be impossible to do.

Asking for confirmation should only be the last resort if undoing an action is 
simply not possible (e.g. when deleting a file permanently). A confirmation 
adds another step to the 99% of actions that were intentional, only to protect 
from the 1% accidents.
Undo, on the other hand, doesn't bother users in 99% of the cases while helping 
them in the 1%.

Yes, an undo feature may sound overblown in this case, but we must get into the 
habit of moving away from confirmation dialogs and towards undo.
