Don't think we want to take over the work from other users- in this case we open readonly or as a copy. Open readonly in local mode shows an infobar where the user can enable the edit mode. When opened as a copy (aka inserted from file) it shows the save dialog on ordinary save actions. Sounds like the usual way for me. Rather than renaming a message that nobody care about we should tweak the workflow. The (technical) question remains how to deal with the lockfile from a terminated process. Can you evaluate this status safely anyway?</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
