[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Please add a -i option to rmdir, similar to the -i toption (interactive prompt) for mv and rm.  It would be useful for the same reasons as it is useful for rm and mv.  I know there are workarounds, but all these commands should support -i for consistency.
Thanks!-- John Wiersba
