You can see here (https://site-patternfly.rhcloud.com/widgets/#buttons) that we support three states for buttons (Secondary (gray), Primary (blue), and Destructive (red)).  I'm curious if people are actually using the Destructive state in designs and, if so, under what conditions they use it.  Any examples will be helpful.

We use it in a couple of places in Cockpit.
Attaching three examples:
* Rebooting the machine - this will affect everyone currently getting 
served by the server. Signals to be careful!
* Deleting a container from the overview - you can only get to this via 
a mode-switch to avoid accidental deletion. There is also a delete 
button on the container details page, also destructive.
* Deleting a network bond - this could affect services listening on that 
interface.

In short, mostly things that delete stuff and that can mess up with 
running services and destroy work for the current users of those services.
