[Bug 1492519] [NEW] add function to preserve in-memory content of externally modified files

 

Public bug reported:

Rather than forcing the user to make the decision whether or not to drop
changes which are preserved in memory in case the file was edited
externally, I'd be nice to allow the user to preserve those
modifications with a new function.
