I just made a typo in a glob pattern for a pkg delete -g (no -a and no force) and mistakenly then selected Y, leading to partial partial system destruction before I stopped it

(The glob pattern was expected to match a lot of port-packages, more
than shows in a window in the context.)

I really wish that the likes of:

# pkg delete -r FreeBSD-ports -g . . .

was supported in order to avoid mistakes being much bigger
than they need to be.


Also of note: it started deleting the system before deleting any
port-packages, even though the port-apcagkes depend on the system.
