Definitely a useful piece of information that should be presented to users at
the the most relevant time, when they are saving, so that we can provide users
with clear information of why when they clicked the save button or pressed
Ctrl+S, the save dialog will be appearing.

A user is never actually editing the file they open, they are editing a copy of
it until they click the save button, and then the file on disk is overwritten.

Guess we'll have to agree to disagree on this, so lets see what others think of
it. Cor, Stuart, Heiko: what is your take on this issue?
