I suppose that many users returned back to 2.6 for this reason.
There should be a clear warning that saving is still possible, only it 
was renamed to "overwrite".
IMO, the intention of the authors was to educate the users and remind 
them that at the opening of a file, the data are internally converted to 
the working format, and at the saving they are converted back to 
original format. But this intention missed its goal, because the user is 
not informed what and why was changed, and when he sees that the 
application behaves in a weird and user-unfriendly way, then the 
simplest solution is to downgrade back to the last sane version.
