Delete Branch "%!s(<nil>)"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
This is a usability issue.
I stopped using vikunja-desktop because it has no memory of username or password, forcing a trip to my password manager application every time I launch vikunja-desktop.
Too much friction.
In a browser I can have the browser remember the password or use my password manager browser extension.
The only solution I can find for Electron apps is node-keytar which uses the system keychain to store the user/pass.

The challenge (if we'll go that route) would be to include it in the web app since the desktop app is only a wrapper around the web client.
To be fair this is a flaw of at lot of Electron apps. Wordpress for one.
