Edit Segment Dialogs

I think it is possible to do away with the red close X button in the top right corner of these dialogs. There is a cancel button which will close the window. It is a bit frustrating to spend time editing a segment and then lose all ones efforts by dismissing the box with the X by accident instead of pressing OK.
Ouch. And there's no undo available for a cancelled operation.
It's a good point. Removing the X entirely might be a bit drastic, but we could probably show a confirmation message box before closing if that button is pressed.
How would that be?
Yes. That would be good particularly if the message says something like "CLICK NO TO RETURN AND SAVE YOUR CHANGES AND THEN USE THE OK BUTTON INSTEAD" The banner on the message could say "CLOSE WITHOUT SAVING CHANGES" . This will get me and others to remember in future to avoid the close X button.
