Description Nathan Reynolds CLA 2012-01-03 13:05:12 EST 
Build Identifier: 20110916-0149

If I edit a file that belongs to a project in the workspace and then undo the changes to the last save, the dirty file property for the file is cleared.  If I do the same for a file that is not part of any project, the dirty file property for the file is not reverted.  The dirty file property should be cleared.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Drag a txt file from Windows Explorer onto Eclipse
2. Add a space to the txt file in the Eclipse editor
3. Hit Ctrl-Z to undo the changes
4. Notice that the * in front of the file name remains
5. Close Eclipse
6. Notice that Eclipse prompts the user to save the file
