In the editor view one can request a 'New Editor'
in the context menu of the editor's tab. The result
is a second view to the same text file, which I
find sometimes rather useful.

Now imagine that I have an open file, which
has benn modified and not yet saved back (dirty).
If you only have one editor view to this file,
closing the editor must of course ask for saving
that file in order to persist information.

But if one has a second editor view open (by means
of the "New Editor" feature), it should be possible
to just close one of the both views, without being
asked for saving. Reason: Because the now closing
editor acts just as a view to the file, and closing
it should not affect the state of that file in any
way.

Currently, this is not so. You are asked to save a file
while closing a second view. IMO this behaviour should 
be changed in future releases (but prio is low, of course).
