========================

kedit changes group id of a file. A file owned by root.ppp will after editing it be saved as owner/group root.root. Try for example 'touch testfile ; chown root.ppp testfile ; ls -l testfile ; kedit testfile ; ls -l testfile'. This happens only when you are root. I'm aware that this is actually a feature, but why does kedit have to play around with the file id anyway?
