Would it be possible to save it as read-only ? An other possibility, would be 
to change kioexec a little bit.

Here is the current behaviour (KDE 4.5):
* take a screenshot
* open with kolourpaint
* modified it, save to disk
* Kioexec ask me "Temporary file changed ... Do you still want to delete it ? 
{Delete} {Do not delete}"

Instead of asking whether to delete or not, we could also have the option 
"move somewhere else", and when the user click on this he would get a dialog 
to save the file where he can find it later.
