Azfar - I'm going to assign this to you so I can get started on packaging the 
plugin...

I've found it easier for the editor to prompt with a editor.doSaveAs() when 
it's closing.

The problem is that those editor tabs have a default way of prompting to save 
when they're being closed...

Two solutions that I found that you can explore:

(1) Override the isSaveOnCloseNeeded() method in ISaveablePart (which is a 
subclass of IEditorPart, returned when the editor is opened)

Problem: I don't know how to override this method when the openEditor() call 
returns an instance of IEditorPart.

(2) Do a editor.save(null) immediately when the user hits the "X" on the tab.  
It will not actually save anywhere, but will prevent the default dialog from 
coming up.

Problem:  I could not find a listener that responds immediately when the "X" is 
clicked.  Only when the part is closed.
