So let's try to sort a bit:

If a file from a remote location is opened from an OOo source (OOo file dialog,
picklist etc.) the file is loaded directly and after closing the document no
temporary file is left on disk. So far, so good.
If the user does not have write access to the location a "save" will fail. But
usually OOo is not able to detect the inability to write before. So there is
nothing we could fix here, even if that might be confusing for users. Not
allowing to edit and save files from http IMHO is not a solution.
The situation changes dramatically if the user has used an external resource to
enter the URL that downloads itself, like e.g. Internet Explorer, Window file
dialog and obviously Konqueror. In this case the file OOo gets handed over is
only a temporary one and "save" will work but don't help at all.
The only "fix" I can imagine here is not to allow saving to "temp" folders at
all but I doubt that this is a good strategy.

So overall I don't see anything here we could do. 
Do you agree with my analysis or do you have a concrete suggestion what we could
change?
