Hi :) I'm not sure if that is defective behaviour. There was no real change to the document itself so to my way of thinking i wouldn't want the changes to be fixed. The save button is greyed out quite legitimately imo.
Also if i make changes to a document and realise i didn't want to fix those changes into the document then i also wouldn't save, in much the same way. Whenever i do want to save changes i save the document, or as a template.
