The new "Save Changes" dialog is strange.  It asks a question then offers 3 buttons, none of which answer the question.

1) Why did we change this?
2) If we must change it, it should be essentially "Save changes?"  Yes|No|Cancel


How about: "This file contains unsaved changes.  If you navigate away, will lose them.  Do you want to save your changes?

Yes|No|Cancel
"

Yes saves and navigates, No does not save and navigates and Cancel does nothing.
