Preventing deletion of private data

Preventing deletion of private data
Sun, 13 Apr 2008 16:03:17 -040
Hi,

I would like to password protect the ability to delete my personal data.
Here's what i want:
Click Tools > Delete Private Data...
At this stage, Opera should ask me for my master password that I have  
already set.
If i provide the right password, opera should let me go ahead and delete  
the private data, else I should not have access to this feature.

Is there already a way to accomplish this?

thanks

What is it exactly that you want to accomplish? Do you often accidentally  
clear private data (which seems unlikely) or is this to prevent other  
people from messing with your programs? If the latter, it seems this is  
much easier by just throwing away some files or folders on your hard  
drive. Such safeguards should be at the operating system level.
