"they think a viewer shouldn't change files"

Well, all picture viewers in KDE allow rotating a diplayed picture, and then saving it back so IMHO there's no reason a pdf/ps/.. viewer should be different...

"all picture viewers in KDE allow rotating a diplayed picture, and then saving it back"

And that's exactly the thing i HATE with those viewers! I'm opening an image, rotating the VIEW, to look at it from a different angle, and when closing (or moving to the next image) I'm being asked if I want to save changes. What changes!?!? If rotating the view constitutes a "change", then why zooming it does not? Rhetorical question, of course. And first of all, why do I have to be afraid of damaging my file by opening it in a VIEWER, and accidentally pressing wrong button on exit? Hope someone fixes this misfeature...

Tip; alter your gwenview config to never ask you this anymore ;)
