Whoa. I see now that form.save(model) saves
the data back to the DOM, following which a
saveDocument(document, documentID)
does the actual file writing. Does this mean the
DOM can be safely manipulated *after* the
form.save()
but before the
savedocument()
function?
[getting the feeling that coding on friday afternoon
is a Bad Idea ;-]

OK. Perhaps the terms used are confusing
form.save(model) in fact equates to "form.update(model)"
But the idea is still to try and alter some fragment
of the data *before* the update goes through...
why is it not possible to alter only one part, and why
should "everything be discarded" by making such a partial
change?

No. If you do that, everything you have done before calling
form.save()
will be overwritten and discarded. form.save() does not "save the
model", it updates the model following what is written in the binding
spec which does *NOT* include the HTMLArea field.
