  This works as described. One additional thought on that:
  Some users may want to save the modified version to a new file instead of overwriting the existing one. While this is already possible via "File" -> "Save As" (or Ctrl+Shift+S), I think it might be helpful to add an additional button "Save as" in that dialog as well. This would also help avoid users accidently overwriting the original file. (Evince, for example only offers a "Save As" option and users switching between the two programs might not be aware of the difference at once.)
  Alternatively (or in addition to that), clarifying the question in the dialog to something like "Do you want to save your changes TO THE DOCUMENT <FILENAME> or discard them?" (capital letters only here to indicate what has been added) might possibly be an option as well.
