So I press save, and go for a coffee, and come back confident my file was saved, knowing that I'd get huge alarm bells ringing if the operation failed. And your "elevated status" message would be as long gone as Sven's much less irritating but basically invisible status bar message. Please, if I go to overwrite another file, I get a big warning, and I want that. If I try to save and it doesn't work, I want a warning too. A clear warning not just that one of the gargoyles on the gate-posts fluttered one eyelid in the dark when no-one was watching. Make me press OK :-) Even if I had previously saved to the same location, GIMP is surely not checking things like the USB device ID on a remote network drive, and has no idea I changed the thumb drive.
