Indeed, yes! I have noticed this too and eventually figured it out the same as 
you did.

My instinctive reaction tends to be one of "Oops, did I enter a letter or 
keystroke somewhere into the file and now need to go fix?", since I also 
usually type Control-D, Control-M, Control-T, etc., to open up the various 
designer and other windows. With mouse clicks in between each, since the 
designer windows retain the focus when they are opened <argh!>. I am never sure 
whether my keyboard and keystrokes might not have done the Right Thing™ to the 
file itself. :)

So, When checking older documents for content and text (where changes must NOT 
be made!), I am very careful now to:
        (a) *not* save files that I opened for "looking" at, and
        (b) when I open documents that I *am* working on, I immediately do a 
save so that I am sure of its state, or
        (c) type a few control-Z's to make sure of the state of the document.
