Package: cron
Version: 3.0pl1-105
Severity: wishlist

It is far too easy to type 'crontab -r' (which is geographically very close to 
'crontab -e') and accidentally delete one's crontab.  Please either remove this 
"feature" or alias cron = 'cron -i' in /etc/profile to ask if the user is sure 
before going ahead with deletion.  How often do you actually inted to 
completely remove a cron file?  How hard is it to zero out the file inside the 
editor if that's what you really want?
