Summary0002231: Synchronization: User should be told how many tracks are being deleted from the device
DescriptionWhen the user synchs to an iPod and MM is configured to delete tracks that aren't on the synch list from the device, the user is told that the following tracks will be deleted....

Instead they should be told the following _X_ tracks will be deleted....

This gives the user an indication of how many tracks will be deleted so:
a) it's easy to know that it's working properly
b) they don't have to manually count the tracks
TagsNo tags attached.

Fixed in build 1001.
 - I also added a new button Continue, users often asked about a confusing behaviour of the Cancel button, so now there are all three options: Delete, Continue and Cancel.

Tested in 1008 and it works, but there are a couple of minor problems:

1) Grammar:
a)
...aren't in synchronization list.
-->
...aren't in the sync list.

(I want to change all instances of 'synchronization list'/'Auto-synchronization list' to 'sync list'/'Auto-sync list')

b)
...remove them from device.
-->
...remove them from the device.

2) 'Delete' / 'Continue' / 'Cancel' is unclear
'Delete': Is clear (user thinks that the tracks will be deleted and then synchronization will proceed)
'Continue': Unclear (it implies that the deletion will continue as per the settings in the dialog)
'Cancel': Implies cancelling the synch operation completely.

Thus, 'Continue' should be 'Continue without deleting'. However, this is too verbose. Thus the following would be best:

3)
a) There should be a checkbox at the top of the list to select all/deselect all, as there is in most other selection lists.
b) The buttons should be:
-'Continue' -- continues the operation based on which tracks are selected
-'Cancel' -- cancels the sync

Assigning to Ludek to add that 'global' checkbox and also implement the rest of Rusty's suggestions.
