    True, but there is a very simple way to alleviate the issue: when
    loading/saving the file, store a modification time.  Then use an
    idle hook in the background to check the file on disk's
    modification time -- if it's newer than the cached version, pop
    up a dialog informing the user and ask them if they would like to
    reload.


Ok. Good. Please add this clarification (if needed), to your wishlist bug.

Not my bug :) Additionally, that's a separate, but similar issue -- Leo doesn't update the 'temp' file created when editing a node in an external editor, and then editing it again in Leo.

I'll file a wishlist bug for this, though.
