Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 63518
warn when saving if edited portions have been deleted ("You have deleted newly edited portions of the document since last saving")

The following steps sometimes lead to data loss (so for me two minutes ago - will cost me an hour to re-enter this stuff :-( ): - Open a previously created file - edit the file - delete parts of the file to get an extract of the file - save the extract under a new name => the editing steps in the finally deleted parts of the file are lost because I did not remember not having saved the full version of the file before. And there is no backup either as the automatic save function discards the deleted text, too. What about a confirmation box saying that some data that have been entered since the last saving action has been deleted again has not be saved in the old file either?
according to http://qa.openoffice.org/issue_handling/workflowcharts/ RFE_issues_by_QA.sxd I reassign this issue to requirements and set the status to New
