Too easy to accidentally start a stream

[TomCatTwitch]

Hey - why doesn't clicking the Stop Streaming button include a blur() or equivalent for said button so that 'Start Streaming' isn't accidentally triggered by a spacebar? Accidents happen, so for anyone who has ever accidentally started their stream without realizing it, this is just one less thing in life to have to worry about. Unlike stop/start recording, or a play/pause type toggle, this isn't really one that I see users wanting to be able to rapid fire via spacebar... or likely to (intentionally) use spacebar to activate at all. A blur() would probably suit everyone just fine.

Spacebar would only (de)activate it if it were already highlighted, or if someone assigned space as a start/stop streaming hotkey, which is a terrible idea; OBS does not assign shortcuts, it assigns hotkeys that will activate regardless of which program has focus, and is intended to work that way.

Additionally, if it is an issue for you, you can go into Settings->General, and check the boxes under the Output section for 'show confirmation dialog when' on the cases you want to have an 'are you sure' dialog pop up. They're defaulted to off as they mostly just annoyed people.
