Bug Report

There are still, that far in development (v3.x), things that should not be there; some of them should not even be discussed about, at this stage. Especially the absence of any confirmation dialog related to (essential && time-consuming) things - reIndexing/reEmbedding the files in a LocalDocs collection, Removing a model, Removing a LocalDocs collection.

1. The information about a LocalDocs collection being reIndexed when the contents of the corresponding folder is changing: this info looks deprecated and is downright misleading when referring the folder's contents only, because the users may believe that info; however, a collection is also reIndexed when the user Tab-s out of the TextBox with the document snippet's size (Settings->LocalDocs->Advanced), leading to days of Embedding the files therein - because of the Tab taken as OK, which it ain't. -: This latter information shuld be added to the explanatory text in that Label, as to state a real/current/actual fact.

2. A LocalDocs collection is Removed immediately after clicking on the Remove button, without any confirmation dialog. -: Knowing that a collection can be Embedded over several days, a confirmation dialog is necessary for the user to confirm the Removal operation of a collection.

3. The number of files (existing? readable? being Indexed/Embedded?) in the folder of a LocalDocs collection may not equal the number of files with "allowed" extensions, that can be read/parsed during Indexing/Embedding, in that folder; a MOBI file could be readable, but we don't know if it exists among the N files. -: That number should tell the user Something Useful, like "N files with allowed extensions".
