v2 of the viewer: Edit, on text and Markdown, in the dialog and on the
row menu. Save is explicit -- every save mints a new blob, so autosave
would burn quota and multiply the conflicts it cannot see.
Two people editing one file is the case worth getting right. `saveText`
re-reads the node and compares the blob the editor started from: if
somebody else saved in the meantime it refuses, says so, and leaves the
work in the box to copy out. `ifInState` is the obvious tool and the
wrong one -- it is the state of every FileNode in the account, so an
unrelated upload in another folder would fail the save, and a warning
that cries wolf is a warning people click through.
Editing is not offered where saving would lose something: a file
truncated for display would have its tail written away, and one that did
not decode as UTF-8 would have mojibake written over whatever encoding it
really is. Both open read-only and say which. Nor is it offered without
mayModifyContent -- a read-only share just has no Edit.
Closing or cancelling with unsaved changes asks first, Ctrl+S saves, and
mail attachments are unaffected: they pass no onSave, because a message
part is not a thing that can be written back.
