           Summary: Attempting to save changes to a workflow saved in a KAR
                    file fails
           Product: Kepler
           Version: 1.x dev
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: MacOS X
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: installer
        AssignedTo: berkley at nceas.ucsb.edu
        ReportedBy: swriddle at gmail.com
         QAContact: kepler-dev at kepler-project.org


The following fails:

1) Create new workflow
2) Instantiate a Constant actor
3) Right click on canvas and Save Archive
4) Create new canvas and close existing workflow
5) Open the workflow from the library pane by Right-clicking on
Workflows->WorkflowName and select "Open Archive (KAR)"
6) Change the value of the Constant actor
7) Close canvas. Kepler will inform you it wants to save change to file [path
to Kepler directory]. Of course saying 'yes' won't work.

Possible solutions: Either save things back correctly to the KAR file, or if
this is not the desired behavior, disable the save functionality (and the save
reminder, of course).
