            Bug ID: 132971
           Summary: "Your changes will be lost" dialog box: make buttons
                    Yes / No to be more consistent with other software
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 3.3.0 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: j at gget.it

Description:
When closing a document which is not saved, we have this classic dialog box:

"Your changes will be lost ...":
[S]ave 
[D]on't save 
[C]ancel

Having to remember keyboard shortcuts [S] and [D] is inconsistent (at least on
Windows) with other programs.
Probably 90% programs use the standard:
[Y]es
[N]o
Cancel
It's true for MSOffice, for SublimeText, etc.: https://imgur.com/mVr9585

If every program has different default shortcuts it creates a UX burden (see
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principles_of_user_interface_design) for the user
to remember new different shortcuts for every program.

---

TL;DR: Proposal: use the Y / N standard for this dialog box, it will improve
the UI/UX.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new document
2. Write some text
3. Close Writer
4. See the "Your changes will be lost..." dialog box


Actual Results:
Standard Y/N shortcuts don't work (obviously)

Expected Results:
Y or N keyboard shortcut should be able to answer to such a dialog box, as with
(nearly) all other software.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
(Personal opinion: It's on these little details
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principles_of_user_interface_design) that we see
how polished UI/UX is for a program)
