Items equipped on a character need to be protected from being destroyed or sold directly to a vendor. Equipped inventory needs to have a safe lock on it!

Agreed. Nothing good comes from in place salvaging.
Donāt manage your equipped gear when youāre at a vendor or while youāre wielding Haedrigās Hammer. Vendors have the buyback optionā¦

Donāt click on the items you are wearing when salvaging. Thereās zero reason your cursor should go up there during the salvage operation.

It appears that some people now need to be protected from themselves.

Johnny how many times must I tell you to stop doing that?

Donāt play in the street, donāt touch the stove when it is hot, donāt put your toys in the toilet.

Iāve accidentally salvaged an equipped item beforeā¦ Happened when I was a bit too sauced. The next time I played with my wits about me, I scolded myself and moved on.

Haha, me too. A few bottles of vino and I can salvage just about anything. 
We all click too fast. āThe town is lavaā¦ā - Raxxanterax

+1 for this!
have not yet salvaged an equiped item, but many that i forgot to move into stash.
We should be able to lock the items, i think many other games do that, PoE maybe? could be simple like Lshift click the item and a box will be checked.
prob not getting QoL stuffs like this to an 8+ years old game
And yet some players still want a āSalvage All Legendaiesā optionā¦ This is exactly why there isnāt one.
Iāve never done that. Captain Morgan, on the other handā¦

We already have the āAre you sure you want to salvage this itemā pop-ups, how much more hand-holding do you think we need?
We all make mistakes, learn from them and move on.

In addition, donāt accidently right click items in inventory. Equip, then salvage what was equipped.
You make an excellent point and I find it an epitome of irony that you think it serves the anti-solution argument.
You see, Johnny and other kids - as indeed do adults - do get killed off and on when playing on the street. Same goes for other forms of incidents. When living off a country road, perhaps such street play is an odd thing, but when living in a city when you have to cross it dozens of times a day, it becomes a serious probability.
Accordingly, laws and measures are put into effect to limit the problem. Speed limits, crossing zebras, speed bumps, police surveillance, etc. In civilized countries, there are even areas designated as Fussgaengerzones (weāll call those solutions to the problem).
D3 could use a solution too, especially since dozens of times a day, day-after-day, year-after-year, players swing their mouse within pixels of items that are earned with long hours of work and lost in a single moment of inattention, and which should probably be protectedā¦especially since doing so is a simple bit of coding away.
Do they have a second stop sign after the first one?

Bingo. 
Yeah I know itās stopping at a crosswalk and not a stopsign, but itās still funny to see a bus laughing.
You canāt fix stupid.
