Synopsis: I never want to run after a failed compilation

Description
I love the fact that F5 automatically compiles before running.

But if the compilation failed, instead of halting it displays a "Confirmation" dialog warning that this may lead to unexpected behaviour. The default button is OK, which proceeds to run the application.

I will never want to run in this situation.

Please put a check box on the dialog so that I can prevent this dialog from appearing. It's a nuisance! This check box will behave as if Cancel had been chosen, i.e. it will not run after a failed compilation.

The default button is now Cancel rather than OK, which is an important improvement.

I still think it's a poorly-designed dialog, however. It's peculiar to have Cancel as the default. The wording of the dialog should be reversed, so that OK can be the default.

And I still want a check box so that I can choose not to interact with the dialog at all, please.
