That appears backwards to me. My take is, software should always go
the safe path by default, and offer the dangerous one only after
explicit consent. So with the infobar idea, that would mean open
read-only, but perhaps provide the option to switch to edit mode while
keeping the filename?
Well - that'd be OK IMO :-)
