In the latest release gschem:

Open gschem.
Draw a net on the page.
MENUS: File -> Close Page

Save dialog pops up, offering buttons:

[Save As] [Cancel] [Discard Changes]


CVS gschem.

Result is a save dialog, offering buttons:

[Cancel] [Save]


It is just a minor regression, but offering Discard Changes was recently
added. Seems a shame to loose it.


Also, if the file has a name, (already saved) and I make it dirty, the
save as dialog is still offered. I guess this offers most flexibility,
but most Gnome apps I've used just offer: 

[Close without saving] [Cancel] [Save]

I'm really liking the new file dialogs with preview, and I think the
component selector is great.
