Another thing for the "eventually" pile. (A scratch buffer is not backed by a file, and does not warn (#174) the user if they close without saving. If they save it becomes a normal buffer.)

Read only buffers should be marked as such through the UI, probably the status bar?

TextEdit does warn if you attempt to close an window that has content but is not backed by a file yet. I think that is desirable behaviour for a scratch buffer.

Hmm, unsaved documents already work as expected in xi-mac. Do we want support for unsaved buffers that explicitly don't warn upon closing?

Yea I don't think we need to do anything for scratch.
