------- WARNING --------

Reopening this bug!

This bug is prevalent in the latest hardy version again, and it is
absolutely critical.

When you open a, say, OOo Writer .odt file from Evolution, you are no
longer warned in Writer that it is only a temporary file and you have to
create a copy of it to work with it.

My father was a victim of this bug. He edited a document simply opened from an 
Evolution e-mail and then edited it. When he clicked on close, he was asked to 
save the document and clicked "Save" of course. However, the document was lost! 
Not even recoverable from the Evolution temp files. He thought it would have 
been saved to the attachement in the E-Mail he opened the file from, but it was 
not.
This lead to two hours of wasted work. It is absolutely crucial that this 
doesn't happen to a broad range of users.

Please treat this bug with highest priority.
