Given that OmniOutliner is an organizational tool, the position of a  
given content item relative to others has significance.  Also,  
whether an item is expanded or not has significance for the same  
reason.  That's the reason the document is marked as "dirty",  
suggesting a save whenever you alter the document in these ways.   
Remember that if you want, you aren't required to save.  You can  
always discard the changes you made, if you feel they are significant  
enough to warrant a save.  This would address the last modified issue  
described earlier in the thread.
