When an Editor part is closed and its isDirty method returns true, Eclipse displays the confirmation message "'xxxxxx' has been modified. Save changes?". We would like to have a feature to override the message. Our editor is not a regular "editor". It represents a connection with a server. It does a kind of edit operations also, but we would like to display a message like "Do you really want to close the server connection?" in place of the current default message.
I can't think of a way in which this would work. If multiple dirty editors are open, then what do we do? If we do do this, I think we'd need to provide some kind of EditorPart.getSaveMessage or EditorPart.getSaveDialog.
