but some would probably just click without thinking. That's a habit many people have.

It's also like the dialog box you get when Windows doesn't know what to do with a file. When you get the pop-up that allows you to choose the program with which to open the file, in that same window a box may be checked that tells Windows to always use that program. Often, that's not what I want to do, so I have to remember to uncheck that box.
