Can you please add a fail safe to "End Broadcast"?

[John Zapf]

I'm just hoping you can add a fail safe to end broadcast I was trying to stop my stream the other day and clicked end broadcast. That stream had been going for over a year had 2.5 million views and 18,000 thumbs up and I lost all of it. Can you please put a fail safe on there that says "Hey Are you sure you want to do this!" this is a very important thing there needs to be two steps on the it shouldn't just end my stream because I click on it that was some serious damage I lost hundreds of dollars right then and hundreds of dollars for the next months moving forward...

Reasonable request... You can hide the dock though if you don't want anyone clicking on it accidentally

Option was in OBS since v0.13.0: https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/commit/bbbdd4442ce010cf47c8126c5e310065f7e3e623

For YouTube integration (into OBS), when confirmation set, on each "End Broadcast" click, the next message should be shown (v30.1.2):

You will not be able to reconnect.
Your stream will stop and you will no longer be live.
