Hm, the example is in the second paragraph above.  To summarize:

1) I use BBDB with supercite;

2) in an answer to a letter I use an occasional attribution, specific
   to that particular answer, _and which I do not want to save;_

3) but BBDB keeps offering me to save it whenever I save or exit Gnus;
   OTOH some useful information may intervene, and I cannot record it
   without saving the unwanted attribution.

Of course I can exit Emacs without saving BBDB.  Or I can save and
then remove the change manually.  But these are not civilized means.

What I would expect is either a quit without save, or (better) a
"revert BBDB" (discard the internal BBDB data and reload BBDB from the
file).
