Hi Mikhail,
P.S.
I do not think we are in hurry. It is Monday today. Please keep your time for
more important things.
I would be also trying to devise some user scenarios with
all-the-time-starting-with-read-only documents.
Regards,
Tora

although the provided document handling scenario looks to be a little
bit strange for me, opening the document readonly as Mathias has
already suggested would be the solution. In your case the documents
are opened from the file explorer. So you need probably a possibility
to let office open every file readonly by default.
Could you provide us with a user scenario using a possible solution
"opening all documents readonly by default"?
case A) a single user handling an existing document file; when the file
gets locked and when unlocked?
case B) two users sharing one document file in a file server and one
user editing it
case C) multiple users sharing one document file in a file server and
some users unexpectedly editing it simultaneously
case D) File - Save As, previous one unlocked and new one locked, become
readonly?
case E) Starting with an empty file (couldn't be readonly) and File -
Save, become readonly, locked?
...
I have been trying to imagine that, and found it is hard for me.
In other words, there should be a possibility to configure office in
the way, that it opens the documents readonly always. If user wants to
edit the opened document, he has to switch the document to edit mode
explicitly. The feature would be a consistent part of the current
design, so please submit a new feature request to me (
[email protected] ) for this.
PS: Please try to avoid writing words with capital letters without
necessity, ...
Thank you for the suggestion. I will keep it in mind.
Best Regards,
Tora
