>Description:
the 'e' and 'r' keys on most keyboards are right next to one
another. This has the unfortunate side effect of making
'crontab -r' be run instead of 'crontab -e'. This problem is
less severe now that root's crontab is in /etc/changelist but
is still a problem.
>How-To-Repeat:
edit your crontab with 'crontab -e' several hundred times.
>Fix:
Suggest we change the flag or add a verification flag or
even a 'sleep(5)' or something? Unsure, hence this PR.
