[news.eclipse.platform] Re: storageeditorinput and SAVE ???

Kar, there is no way you can know whether an editor supports saving back to a given IEditorInput. If you check the API for the ISEI, it doesn't even mention saving back to the underlying IStorage and suggests that a new file resource be created for writing the contents.

"File-oriented editors should support this as a valid input type, and display its content for viewing (but not allow modification). Within the editor, the "save" and "save as" operations should create a new file resource within the workspace."
