When we enter re-enforcement stage, we always find two countries pre-selected, the source and destination, and they are always the wrong countries, and this makes it very dangerous. A single wrong click can move all our troops to the wrong destination and suddenly end the turn, with no chance of acceptance/rejection and no chance of undo. This has happened to me quite a few times.
Please do not even try to guess what our move will be in re=enforcement, it will ALWAYS be wrong, because you do not know what our strategy is.
Re-enforcement should work only with a left-click and a right-click. First I can right=click any number of times to select a source country. Until I do this, no troops will move, because no country will be pre-selected as a source. After this, I left-click to the destination country to move the troops. A yes/no confirmation to check that I have indeed selected the correct countries before ending the turn would be welcome.
Upon entering re-enforcement, a hint "Please right-click the source country and left-click the destination country" will also be welcome.
Thanks.

You can't assume clickability. However defaulting the drop-downs to blank, requiring a selection, would certainly be welcome; I could see the same approach being beneficial for attacking.
Re: Preselection of countries in Reinforcement
If any changes were to be made, I think they would have to be to all phases of a turn - deploy, assault, reinforce.
But - there are confirmations available in your game settings. Go to the Settings page: http://www.conquerclub.com/player.php?mode=settings
There are three options. Please note that you need to be running the Panel Interface to make use of these (it can also be activated on this page).

Confirm Deploy: [Panel Interface Only] Makes a confirmation alert appear before deploying troops (currently set to No)?
Confirm Auto Assault: [Panel Interface Only] Makes a confirmation alert appear before auto-assaulting (currently set to No)?
Confirm Phase End: [Panel Interface Only] Makes a confirmation alert appear before end a phase of play (currently set to No)?
