Mark: Yes, that is what I’m saying. And it’s worse: I let TW save on tiddler edit and the little popup box in the upper right corner that says ‘saved wiki’ *does* appear to signal the save when the tiddler is changed from draft to normal. So TW is lying about its status in the user notification -- the only signal for the unsaved status is the ‘save changes’ icon in the menu which doesn’t change colour.
Of course it would help if TW detected a failed save attempt to spit out a proper warning. Am Freitag, 9.
