[Gnumed-devel] Confusing dialog "Deleting medication"

The dialog provides "yes, delete it any way" but only after providing an 
alternative precautionary suggestion to edit the details first (yes, this is a 
good idea too) so click "yes" --> OOPS! the substance is gone. --> I think it 
is better to not present two competing ideas in the same dialog or, when that 
would be necessary, to put the question immediately before the button.

Can I suggest:

Before deleting, you may rather edit-in an explanation of why it is being 
deleted. Edit the entry instead?

        click Yes --> goes to Edit
        click No --> deletes

if the above is not a good idea, then put first

        It may be prudent...

and then the other line as

        Skip editing and really delete this substance intake "<value>"? <-- if 
a parameter can be passed
