[UX issue] "Discard draft" should be removed from sidebar cards

[danieldunderfelt]

Can we NOT have this? I had written a long response, checked in on another thread, then as I clicked back to the thread with the long response I accidentally hit the "discard draft" button that I didn't even know about, and the response I had written disappeared without recourse. This is terrible UX. This button should be destroyed with fire. If you must have it, allow me to disable it, or AT LEAST prompt me for an extra confirmation.

Same thing here, several times, on desktop 0.0.42: hover a thread row to open it, the click lands on the hover-only X next to Snooze and Settle, and the draft is gone with no confirmation or undo.

Since this is silent loss of typed text rather than a feature request, I filed it as a bug with repro steps and source pointers: #12735.

Resolved by #10637 (merged). Discarding a sidebar draft now shows the same undo notice as archive/settle/snooze (discardComposerDraft / thread.undo), so an accidental click is recoverable. Marking this Ideas thread resolved.
