Comment (by humdinger):

 OK. Then I probably remember it wrong. I just noticed it, because I was
 working with I-O-M, wanted to save, got the save dialog, but somehow lost
 focus on it. I accidentally and unknowingly deleted a shape in the I-O-M
 document, then got back to the save dialog and saved the now maimed
 file...[[BR]]
 I can see an advantage of having only the save dialog modal. Normally, you
 invoke the save dialog to save the current state of the document, implying
 that it cannot change until it is "save".

 Maybe it's no big deal, it's just that I got bitten by it at least this
 one time. Thankfully I don't use FFM, or I'd have much more focus
 casualties... :)
