It already does that (I think).

Apparently it doesn't do it properly - but it certainly has code that 
checks a number of custom props
  cCheckSum
  cCardSaved
  cDontCheck

I've found it difficult to debug this - I think I'm running into the 
issues of special cases for "revXxx" scripts, and even trying to put 
things to the msg box doesn't appear to work.

So I'm going to, for the short term, try making only the "dumb" change 
to the setting of the "modified" flag, and BZ it to let someone who 
hopefully has more background knowledge in how these things are supposed 
to fit together do it "right".
 
If that works (i.e. causes no problems, and makes it better, even if not 
completely cured), I'll post a stack to automate the change.
