Well the default is `use_gio_unsafe_file_saving` so we endorse it in most 
cases, precisely because it handles metadata and Windows filesystems that won't 
rename, so for most people it "just works" :smile:

The "unsafe" only applies when something goes wrong, which for local storage is 
either the device breaks, or the partition is full, both of which "should" be 
very rare (but some people seem to try to eke the last byte out their storage 
so maybe full is less rare).  And so long as the loss of the device/partition 
doesn't stop the system or Geany the advice in the wiki applies, `don't panic` 
the buffer is still in memory, save it somewhere else eg a USB key.
