I have read on the three possible "modes" for PSPad to handle read-only files,
but none of them seem to address this problem. It's either a bug, or I'm missing
a setting...

If I open a R/O (r-o) file, a marker to the left of the tab filename shows me
why I can't edit. 

If I then close that file, change the -R attribute on the file to allow editing,
and reopen the file in PSPad, it still appears with the read-only marker (and I
can't edit).

Instead, I have to manually tell PSPad that I wish to change the R/O status of
the file manually, in addition to telling Windows via the Attribute bit. 

This seems like pointless work. Is there a workaround?
