No confirmation dialog box for name changes on account.mojang.com

The bug

Previously, whenever you tried to change your username on account.mojang.com, a dialog box would appear as soon as you clicked "Change name", confirming that you really want to change your name.

This dialog box doesn't appear anymore.

WARNING: Don't smash your hands on your keyboard when choosing a name while trying to reproduce this bug or you'll end up like me, asuifjesg893.

But changing your username requires you to enter your password. Is that not enough?

No. There used to be a confirmation box – unintentionally hitting the return key on your keyboard while having typed in your pw and a potentially unwanted username instantly results in your name being changed for 30 days with no possibility of reverting back to the old one within that time span.

Name changes have been removed from account.mojang.com. All name changes are now on my.minecraft.net.
