If I just click the Apply button on my system, an error dialog may be 
created, but often it is hidden under hundreds of other windows.  If I 
kill the script editor, the error dialog actually becomes visible.

If I just click the Apply button on my system, the Apply button becomes 
gray even if the save/apply failed.

I just don't trust the Apply button at all.
