Hi...

A small modification has been made to the UI guidelines, and will be viewable 
shortly at: 

http://developer.kde.org/documentation/standards/kde/style/menus/file.html

The following paragraph has been added to the section on the File Menu, as it 
pertains to document-centric applications:

"If the application only offers a read-only view or if the data in the main 
document area can never be saved back to the original source, Save As... 
should be the only saving option offered in the File menu. It should also be 
bound to the default save keyboard accelerator. The Save... entry is only 
appropriate when files can be opened, editted and then saved back to the 
original file."

Many (most?) KDE applications already follow this principle, and now it's 
codified.
