Bug Description
Binary package hint: file-roller
When editing files in file-roller changes can be lost.
How to reproduce:
1. Double click zip file in nautilus (create one text file and archive it if needed)
2. Double click file in file-roller to open it up in an editor
3. Make some changes in file
4. Save changes (do not save in another folder)
5. Close editor and file-roller
Now changes will be effectively lost and cannot be retrieved back anymore.
Fix proposal:
Remove user write access on temporary directory created by file-roller (in /tmp directory)
