This seems somewhat strange to me, though it's just my opinion.  Do other unix editors 
provide this functionality?  If I was logged in as a root, I would think I should be able to edit 
any file regardless of the permissions without warning.  The idea here being that you 
shouldn't be doing this project editing as root - and if you are its because you need to 
override ownership/group permissions.
