"do you want to keep the imported parts" is redundant?

After importing a part and quitting Fritzing a message comes up saying "do you want to keep the imported parts", and then if you say 'yes' another message comes up saying "do you want to save changes to the contrib bin". If you have made other changes to the bin, even if you say 'no' to the keep-imported question, you will still get the save-changes question.

In other words, there is a distinction made because you may have changed the contrib bin without importing any parts, for example removing or rearranging parts already in the bin. So the pair of questions allows you to save the "internal" changes while giving you the choice to ignore the "external" changes.

I think most systems would not make this distinction--in other words either you keep all the changes or lose all the changes. I also think very few people modify their contrib bins, so this internal vs. external case would seldom come up.

So I vote to remove the keep-imported question. Any objections?
