[QA] Delete button on gerrit

Mon Mar 5 20:00:50 UTC 2018

I just been told there is now a delete button, DON'T USE IT- I just pressed
it by mistake after entering in edit mode thinking it was a "discard patch
started on web interface" (but it is very easy to pres it by mistake), and
apparently it removes the entire CR. I was told by Paladox this is a new
feature on gerrit, and I do not like it already. I managed to delete the
work of a workmate. :-(

I could restore everthing from the database backups, but as it also deletes
the git files content, it doesn't work without it -it cannot be reverted-
only text can be recover from the database in not the nicest formatting.

Apologies for the damages caused. Should I file a ticket to propose to
disable such a button from the UI?
