ZAM user Horsemouth has directed readers toward a post on the official World of Warcraft forums by Greg "Ghostcrawler" Street noting patch 3.1 will give you the chance to confirm your talent points before you spend them. Here's the blue post:

"It hasn't been widely publicized, but in 3.1 there is a UI option to not spend all of your talent points until you hit a 'Confirm' button. Because you aren't actually spending the points, it is also really fast to add ranks or remove them. We default the tool off since having to confirm every single point you spend while leveling is kind of a drag. It's quite useful at level 80 though."

You can discuss the change in Horsemouth's thread here. The general feel of the thread so far is one of approval, and that it may mean one less add-on to keep track of in your folder. What do you think?
