Accidental team switching.

Sometimes when i go to click the squad or kit tabs after pressing Caps Lock, I mistakenly click on the other team's banner and...well you know

. I was wondering if there could be a "Are you sure you would like to switch teams? (y/n)" warning added to prevent accidental team switches. Good idea?
My apologies if this is a resuggestion.
I now realize that this should be in the general feedback section. Oh well.

Yes. I agree with Darknecron on this. This is one of the defects of the original BF2 interface. Is there a way to rearrange these tabs to (very) different locations from each other, or remove the teamswitch ability all-together (one can always ask an admin if one needed to be switched)?
Thanks.
POST EDIT: I've had comments on the "Admin switching only" that if there were no admins online, you would not be able to change sides at all.

Seconded. It's a real *****, especially during fun squadplay, because you can't immediately switch back, no, you have to spawn, suicide, switch, spawn and see some guy's taken your place in the squad.

Yes, I've done this at least a million times, and like quaazi said, it's a real ***** if you are right in the middle of a good game with a good squad.

Anything to do with the interface is Hardcoded iirc but if you press Caps Lock it does the exact same job, apart from you dont need to touch your mouse
