Description
Specifications
Add a SaveAs option that when used does not change the active buffers file.
This is useful when you want to save a temporary copy for out-of-process
querying and suggestion engines (e.g. nimsuggest) without affecting the actual file.

Research direction

Done means SaveAs can write the requested copy while leaving the active buffer associated with its original file.
