Description

When I am in the middle of capturing a feature and decide to abort the operation, I get inconsistent behaviour.

When I am doing geometry capture and try to abort, I am being asked if I want to discard the changes with Yes and No.

as someone with short attention span, I try to read the messages once on a platform and assume it is the same for other parts!
