I just tested with the latest version in cvs, (which was just released
as 2.12.2). It seems to correctly handle dropping a file from the menu
to the desktop. quit+save and then edit again shows the file.

When you add the file in the editor, does it show in the changes window?

Also, its interesting that someone has actually deployed sabayon. What
do you like it? How did you set it up?
