Recently, there has been talk of a bug in WorkBench's "Discard" menu option,
and that has been soundly corrected.  However, there's another problem with
"Discard" that needs to be addressed.

Many times, I select a drawer to delete (the entire drawer, that is).
Sometimes it deletes the drawer and all of it's files and then everything is
okay, but sometimes it deletes all of the files and then the computer
GURUs out on me.  It has never happened on an empty drawer, so I now always
delete all items from a drawer first (via the CLI's Delete), but I was
wondering if this has been fixed in WB1.3.2, and if not, will it be fixed
in WB1.4?
