Yes I understood that it was in regards to stealing, not picking up legally "free" stuff.
I specifically do not want to haveto confirm stealing things because sometimes you are timing things with a guard on patrol. Got 10s to clear a table at the market before the vendor looks back? Guess how fun an extra confimation click per item would be?
Can't see how it's going to take you more than 0.1 sec to hold down alt and bypass the confirmation altogether. I don't know about you, but I always hold the alt key when I am actively trying to pick something up. Old habits die hard from the Diablo 2 days, perhaps?
