It seems to me you are using save to mean something else. Like I'm done and am now
"comitting" my changes. Perhaps a single key that could place a "Label" in the LVCS
system
for all changes files (since the last "Label"). This way, not only would the "*" be
meaningful,
but the LVCS would have a series of checkpoints that would correspond to your "saves".

Seem like the answer here is to get MRU switching capability for tabs.

This is a really bad Often I alt-tab outside of IDEA to do some kind of operation on
the file I
was just editing. I don't want to have to remember to save before doing that.
