Hi John!
It seems to me that this is not directly related to a Save Button, but rather a programming oversight. If at some point you have a dirty buffer, even with a save button, it is because the app hasn't checked for it.
>In applications where I have tried to be "bleeding-edge" and not had dedicated save functions, inevitably "dirty" data gets into the tables. Typos, accidental saves, et al. In a perfect world with perfect users....maybe.
