Subject: [PATCHES] Another destroydb patch

This is a patch to my previous destroydb patch cause some people wanted
slightly different behavior. After this patch is applied, destroydb
will destroy a database as usual, but if added -i flag (which could be
aliased like rm -i) would ask for confirmation.
