Confirmation for batch approval in NXT

I had a situation come up yesterday that made me wonder if a confirmation screen of some kind can come up for batch approval in NXT. As it stands now, if you hit the approve button in error, there is no stopping the process, which then locks everything down, and circumvents whatever approval processes exist. A simple pop up with an "Are you sure?" dialog, or batch validation like exists in database view would have prevented the premature approval of this batch.

Absolutely agree that this is needed - I've hit Approve rather than Edit batch at least twice now in error! It doesn't help that the Approve button is right next to the Edit batch button as well - it's very easy to hit the wrong one.

I did the same thing last week. I wasn't quite ready to approve the batch and somehow accidentally clicked the approve button. A confirmation pop up would have totally prevented me from approving the batch.

I just clicked Approve by mistake when I was aiming for the Edit button! Then did online searching for help, and ended up chatting with a BB rep who showed me how to make corrections but there is sadly no Undo process.
