After playing a bit, I agree, and I think it will be possible to handle
that in a proper way.

Just stupid question: should a warning pop-up really be set ?

ten+ year old, shocking format is deranged anyway, so there is not much

edit it, and hit 'save as' (without having to click the "get me out of !
