emacs -Q
 
The custom :type and the doc string of `dired-no-confirm' are not
correct.  Code (in dired.el and dired-aux.el and 3rd-party code) binds
and tests also the value `t'.  The user option should offer `t' as a
possible value, and the doc string should reflect that.
 
The :type should be something like this:
 
'(choice (const :tag "Confirmation never needed" t)
         (set (const byte-compile) ...))
