Yes, there is that horrendous hack that an embedded HSQLDB does a "save
data in the ODB" on commit, which probably led to disabling the save button.
With Firebird, which I understand saves the data on an explicit "save the
ODB" action, the save button should indeed be activated on insert, modify,
delete (any data change).

I though we already had decided they would have this difference, *but*
taking care that autosaves / backup saves have fresh data (not the same
data as the last save), so as to have some level of crash tolerance.
