Hi James,

First, do you allow me to copy/paste your comments in the issue? Unless 
some infos are confidential, it's always better (because public) to 
comment issues in the issues...

The problem here must be addressed as an enhancement (because we don't 
have the same concept as Microsoft and we have to specify a new behavior 
if needed) but not as a defect.

In the meantime, you can:
- click on the "Edit file" button
- modify the file you need to modify and directly send as E-mail without 
saving (a temporary file will be sent)

Please continue information excange on IssueZilla, not by e-mail.

Regards
Éric Savary
