Inquiry about enabling save button even when there's no change

In Composer 2.0, the "Save" button is currently disabled when there are no changes to the article. However, many reporters have a habit of saving again before leaving the window, and they often misunderstand that saving will not be possible because the save button is disabled. Therefore, we would like to inquire whether it is possible to modify Composer 2.0 so that the save button is enabled and saving is possible even when there are no changes to the article, as in Composer 1.0. Thanks.

    Conversely, it is handy to know when changes have been made so you have to save - so we like having the save button disabled when there is nothing new to save. But we understand the uncomfortableness of just closing the file from the X. Maybe the drop-down for Save & Exit could always be enabled, just not the save button.
