 * Hi,
 * thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.
 * No, sorry, there’s no direct and easy way to do this, one would have to edit 
   the JavaScript code for this, in the edit.js and edit.min.js files.
    But are 
   you really deleting rows/columns that often that the extra protection step is
   so annoying? Have you tried bulk deleting, i.e. selecting the checkboxes of all
   the rows/columns that you want to delete and only then using the “Delete” button?
   That way, you would only see the message once per table edit.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
