Add more detail to the 'Delete this book from all collections' pop up box

If you choose to delete a book from your catalogue (by clicking on the red X in the right hand column of 'Your Books'), you get a message 'Delete this book from all collections'. Would it be possible to specify the book name in the box? The way my display styles are set up, the name of the book is on the opposite side of my screen to the red X and it would be easy to click on the wrong book.

Would it also be possible to specify the account name in the box? I have more than one account on LT and I don't want to delete books accidentally from the wrong account. (For instance, I keep my wishlist for my main account in my secondary account. When I've acquired a book and am deleting it from the wishlist, I don't want to accidentally delete it - and all the details I've added - from my main account.)

I suggest that if this is really a problem for you, that you always go to the main work page to delete books. Or you could set up one of the display styles with the title on the right.

Or you could click the pencil icon to go to the Edit Book page, and delete from there.
