vi looks to be the exception.

I just tried nano, mcedit, echo and rm. Neither makes as much as a beep when writing to a file I have no permission to whatsoever when I do it as root.

Seeing how apps in general never attempt to keep root from doing what root wants to do, I don't even think this is technically a bug anymore and am lowering it to a wish instead.

QEditor does not overwrite readonly files if not run as root.

I think the energy would be best spent solving the real issue (bug 60165).
