[UX Improvement] Context Menu: File Deletion Menu Item Should be Red (Danger)

[brandon1024]

I originally proposed this over on the forums but never received any feedback or response and the thread was closed. I've decided to open an issue here to get some feedback.

Describe your issue in detail

For improved user experience, the dangerous/destructive options shown in the context menu shown when right clicking on a file or folder should be red.

I can only think of two such context menu items at the moment:

• file/folder deletion
• empty trash

The current look is totally fine, but I’ve found there’s a little UX friction when working with pydio cells a lot (cleaning up files and folders, deleting stuff). If the menu item was red, it would be easier to select at a glance.

Proposed Implementation

What version of Cells are you using?

Pydio Cells (latest), docker image hash: d58cb75baa24

What is the server OS? Database name/version? Browser name or mobile device description (if issue appears client-side)?

Debian Bullseye
MySQL 8
Firefox/Chrome

What steps have you taken to resolve this issue already?

I tried to make this change myself, but I’m not a UI developer and struggled finding my way around the UI code. Someone with more UI experience

hi @brandon1024
thanks for submitting
this could be an interesting improvement, although not really straightforward to implement without our current home-baked UI framework.
That said, there is always a confirmation dialog before performing actual deletion, don't you think it's sufficient?
