This is a follow-up to https://github.com/backdrop/backdrop-issues/issues/5077, collecting some suggestions made in that issue about the confirmation page for the "Delete Layout" action (function layout_delete_form() and its processing). Suggestions from that issue:
- If the layout creates a page AND it's the last layout with that path, on the confirm form, add "Warning: the page at path mypage will no longer exist" or such. (H/T @docwilmot.)
- Provide another button in the confirmation form, that disables the layout instead of deleting it. (H/T @klonos.)
- Add more explanation to the warning message, something like this:
Deleting this layout will permanently delete the page at /%path. This action cannot be undone. If you are unsure, then consider disabling the layout instead of deleting it.(H/T @klonos.) - Consider making the "destructive" bit of the text a warning message. (H/T @klonos.)
- Check whether the page being deleted was selected on
admin/config/system/site-informationas the home page or either error page and either warn user or prevent its deletion (which?).
I've updated the PR and its behavior, which is now:
- Added a disable option to the "Delete layout?" confirmation page.
- If deleting (or disabling) a layout would remove a page that is used on the site info page, a warning is issued on the "Delete layout?" confirmation page, and after confirming deletion or disabling, a warning message is put up directing the user to the site info page to make the appropriate change.
- If the user disables a layout directly (using the dropbutton link, so there's no confirmation page), if that action removes a page that is used on the site info page, a warning message is put up directing the user to the site info page to make the appropriate change.

Allow admin to select admin language seperate from front end language (multilingual)
@stpaultim – You're right: my approach affects also the main menu. I guess, because menus are also considered as user interface (not as content). @findlabnet – If I didn't miss anything,...
