another advantage of this approach is that then you can save-to-disk without 
losing the last version the user "saved" - which would make it really easy to 
have vim-like never-ever-lose-any-work goodness. :)

I don't like to do real work in any text editor that can't guarantee I won't 
lose work if something makes it die unexpectedly (not counting filesystem 
corruption of course).
