Oops, I change the wrong bug. This belongs here now:

This is a file picker issue, not a composer issue. On Mac (and probably windows,
though I don't have a build to check on), the native UI puts up the dialog that
gets the user to confirm that they want to save over an existing file. That UI
needs to be implemenented on linux.

The actual file replacement does not happen until later, and that's covered in
bug 9570.

Adjust summary. When this is done, please check that replacing the contents of an
exisiting file works ok (bug 9570).

This one has not been investigated and it may require assistance from akkana
and/or pavlov -- this is a linux only issue and is in the file widget code.

the linux filepicker needs to  be rewritten.
rickg would like to offer the help of waqar to fix this.  ok?
Thanks!  Should we just reassign it to him and cc pavlov?
I'd like to get together with Waqar sometime (soon) and go over the file widget
stuff.  I have a few other bugs that should be factored in to the file widget.

I have fix for it. I need someone to code review.
I hope you are asking in for review in places other than the bug report!  Please
send diffs to pavlov and sdagley via email.
