    initial v1  
    11IIRC StyledEdit has a "read-only" mode that was implemented a while back, when opening files from a partition mounted read-only. Previous to implementing that mode, it would allow invoking Cmd-S, which would then show a "read-only partition" BAlert. After that mode was implemented, it would outright prevent from invoking Save (the Save menu item is SetEnabled(false)), which is better UX.

    3 Maybe that mode could be "forced" here? That would be in addition to displaying a B_ERROR_ALERT warning that "This file contains some binary data which StyledEdit cannot handle and cannot save back to disk reliably, saving will be disabled to prevent data loss" ?
