Provide message deletion confirmation when more than X is selected
Problem: Trying to delete a single message permanently (i.e. ctrl+del) my finger slipped and somehow ended up hitting ctrl+end and del, wiping out my inbox (got a backup, so we're good).
Request: Provide an option to a) confirm deletion and b) only when X number of items are selected.
So if I happen to select (accidentally or on purpose) 10000 emails, I would certainly like confirmation but if only deleting one don't want to be nagged every time.
Let's add some piece of mind to Thunderbird dear Mozilla devs!

Errata: I meant shift+delete, shift+end (not ctrl).
better than the backup is the undelete add-on https://nic-nac-project.org/~kaosmos/index-en.html#recDelMsg
As long as the folder has not been compacted you can recover everything.
