Hey Tony,
The feature is more a warning system and leaves it up to the human to 
figure it out.
I wrote it to really only solve one scenario: 
I'm working on a tiddler for a while and do not save (call it Tiddler A). 
Then in another window or on a different computer I open the wiki and make 
some changes and save (call these changes B). 
Now maybe a day later I see my half edited Tiddler A, I finish it up and 
hit save...
In the old system I would have lost my changes (changes B). With the 
Overwrite Protection at least the save will fail and give me a warning. And 
in that case I can see about fixing it, maybe copying the content and 
refreshing.
Not revolutionary, but something that's certainly needed in place of a file 
lock.
