This is more an annoyance than a bug.

If I change a tag (in browse/edit tab) and then try to move to another file I am reminded to save the change.  But if I select another tab (say, rename from tags) there is no warning, and the change is lost.  Strangely though, if I have an unsaved change and use the directory tree to move to another directory and then back to the directory containing the unsave change I THEN get a reminder!

Would it be possible to raise the warning box on changing tabs?

Actually, the warning when switching to another folder is a bug, which was fixed in the new beta 17 that I released a couple of minutes ago. :)

And sure, I'll think about adding such a warning in a future version.

Thanks for considering it.  Leaky brains need all the help they can get.

As to the bug, I had noticed that if I say "yes", the system usually throws and error, but I hadn't pinned down the conditions closely enought to report it.
