Yes, as soon as you happen to type "y" or "n" you answer the questions.
And rather later than sooner you will notice that you did. ;-)
I think the prompt colors should be the same. That will be the base for

Then as I said before I want them to be noticeable. The user should know
that there Emacs is expecting some special input and that Emacs will do
something special with that input.
