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.
