1977	[PATCH] JOSM shouldn't have Yes/No buttons	xeen	xeen	"Instead they should tell what will happen. 
e.g. the upload dialog:
Yes: Upload Changes
No: Cancel

This doesn't make you read the question (thus easier and probably faster) and also helps you doing the right thing. Most users use the mouse and therefore focus the button visually anyway and by that probably recognize the button. A generic ""Yes"" doesn't warn you that you're actually in the ""exit dialog"" rather than in the ""simplify way out of downloaded area"" (that dialog has Yes/No/Cancel options which is especially bad by the way).

I tried to write a patch but ran into some difficulties. Renaming the buttons is pretty easy, as explained here http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/dialog.html#button but the JOSM's default ""YesIcon"", ""NoIcon"" etc. disappear, and there's no ""option1Icon"" entry or similar. The results are still the same (e.g. YES_OPTION) but the buttons for some reason are not. 

Any hints?"	enhancement	closed	minor		Core	latest	fixed
