The engine doesn't provide a "changed since last save" flag, so the 
IDE takes a belt-and-suspenders approach to deciding whether the 
stack might have been changed.

Fairly often, this results in Rev asking to save when nothing has 
changed - but that's better than having it fail to ask when it needs 
to.
