Editing Templates - caution when saving

Problem: when editing or importing templates they are saved back over the template used to open the Edit dialog.

This is caused by the fact that to access the Edit HTML dialog, Portfolio forces you to edit an existing template rather than just open a blank dialog. If you import a template into the dialog, it is easy to miss the fact that the 'Name:' field is still that of the template you opened to access the dialog. It is very easy to miss this fact and overwrite the original template, especially as you receive no warning you are about to overwrite existing data.

So, when importing a template or creating from an existing one you are strongly advised to set the 'Name:' field as soon as possible, lest you forget.
