Ermm, Hello people...

Does no one remember the discussion where it was said that Yes, No,
Cancel
buttons should never be used with those labels as they were unclear?
I even remember some discussion as part of the Gnome 2 tidyup that any
app that used these should have a bug report place to fix them to give
them meaning full text.

Lets not make the mistake again, lets remove this bad API call, or have
it
issue a warning to get things changed for the better..
