#46229: Uninstalling all active ports - are you sure?

Yesterday I inadvertently ran
"port uninstall active"
when I was trying to run
"port uninstall inactive"
I managed to kill the job before 25% of the installed ports were
uninstalled and it has taken me several hours to reinstall all the ports.
I was wondering if it would be possible to provide a warning to the user
"Are you sure you want to uninstall all active ports?" (or something
similar) as I am sure others have made this bone-headed mistake at some
point.
Macports is an amazing creation and I thank the developers for their hard
work. This additional feature would make it just that much more amazing
:)
