Duane, In my opinion IDEA is doing the right thing here. Other CVS UIs such as WinCVS would also mark it as modified. CVS keeps the timestamp of the checked out files in CVS/Entries and this timestamp is compared against the current file timestamp to see if it is modified.
Any other way of doing it would require the UI to go to CVS for *every* file *every* time it wanted to work out if it had changed. This is not practical and IDEA is currently consistent with the approach of other popular UIs.
