I see reporter's problem, but not a big priority. Everybody knows that that
will happen, and because of that I would not expect that many people continue
editing a document that has been saved as .csv

I doubt that reporter's wish for a table specific "modified flag" can be
fulfilled. IMHO that problem is too exotic, from  time to time the user should
know what he is doing.

To handle that as .csv export instead of "save as .csv" might help, but what
shall we do with .xls "export", and for .xls opened with LibO for .csv?

We also could allow "save as .csv" only for single sheet tables, but that would
be a mess for users who want to do.

My conclusion:
I don't know what to do.
