The change I made was not what you suggested which was indeed too much effort for an entirely made up use case, involving cats and Murphy's "law". Seriously, removing read permissions on files before editing them is the most absurd thing I have ever heard.

Popping up a warning before saving, rather than dealing with an error after saving, specially for you, is within my "jump through hoops to accommodate idiotic use cases, while still trying to get useful work done" budget.
