--- Comment #3 from Hugo Pereira Da Costa <hugo.pereira.da.co...@gmail.com> ---
I disagree that the default buttons should be made more prominent.
I consider hitting the return key in the dialog rather than using the mouse or
the tab key to change focus an advanced user feature, in which case it should
not be an issue, the first time at least, to spend the extra second needed to
find which button is the default. In doubt, one can always use the tab keys.
On the other hand making it more prominent would rather clutter the UI for a
somewhat limited use. It would also increase the confusion (to non advance
users) between the widget that has focus and the default button (as of today I
am not even clear which one, and in which case, takes precedence on the
second).
Also, when using a dialog which have buttons beside the one from the button box
and switching focus using eg tab key (see for instance oxygen-demo5, buttons
tab), see how the default button highlight comes on and off depending on the
nature of the widget that has focus. This blinking behavior would become even
more annoying/confusing if the default button was to be made more prominent.
Last but not least: this "issue" (or absence thereoff) was already discussed
some several years ago and no better design was found at that time (and as far
as I know, still none today).
Wont fix. Sorry.
