Description Pierre-Charles David CLA 2017-06-08 10:30:44 EDT 
When using the aird editor in perspectives where the Model Explorer (or another CNF-based one) is not present, the underlying session will be left opened (and the models loaded in memory) with no visible way for the user to know it (at least until bug #517563 is implemented).

When closing the aird editor, if the "Model Explorer" is not currently visible, we could open a popup to ask the user if he wants to save & close the underlying session (and any associated representations still opened) to remedy this issue. The exact level of information in this dialog and its wording will require some work to make it understandable while not being too technical.
