When using vim 6.1 on RH 8.0 to edit a read only file, if you modify
the file and save the changes with :w! and continue editing, the file
permissions are still read only and all subsequent save of changes,
each time, require the use of :w! . 

I would have expected the file permissions to be permanently changed
to read/write after the first save. Is this a reasonable behaviour? Is
there an option to make vim behave this way?
