Already been thru this discussion... It's been reverted because it was extremely annoying.

In svn r5318 I've reversed the responses so that "No" is now the default answer.  Hopefully this change doesn't bother any users like the proposed change for bug 134466 did. :)

Please note that the change is only for unmerge actions.  All other prompts remain with "Yes" as the default answer.
