We made similar suggestions in the past.
Here's a random quote from back then:
I've said it in the past: if they think that the pop-up solution is visually too crude they could work on presenting it in a fancier way.
For instance they could take a note from XCOM and have a dramatic zoom-in/slowdown and allow the player to quickly confirm the reaction with a left click or pass it with a right click.
But it's really important for the player to be allowed to choose a case-by-case basis.
THEN if some people are still willing to sacrifice control and efficiency for "convenience" (questionable) and automation: be my guest, make it an optional toggle.
and quite frankly it doesn't really look like Larian cared a single bit, so I'm not optimistic about things changing at this point.
