convergent: I think your contexts are selected in your sidebar because you saved your perspective that way. Can you recreate your perspective without those items selected?

I must agree with whpalmer4 here: it only seems natural that having items selected in the sidebar and hitting the delete key should delete those items. If this bothers you, I think the best thing to do is save your perspectives without a sidebar selection.

Having said that, I'm also sometimes a bit nervous about accidentally deleting items, although it's never actually happened to me. The undo is nice, especially when it actually tells me what will be undone (e.g. undo drag). A plain ""undo" with nothing more worries me because I have no idea what it's referring to.

So some kind of optional deletion warning would be nice. Or, add a trash can, so I at least have a chance to recover an item before it's gone for good.
