Hi,
I'm not sure, what I should think about it. If you create a new shell-script, rights are set to non-executable (in my case it is 644). Sometimes, it is really annoying, to make the file executable, before using it. But also in some cases, a script doesn't need to be executable, sometime its even dangerous. So my question: What do you think about changing default value to 744? I could also imagine to add a new option into »Save as«-dialog, to set the rights.

Definitely a bad idea, IMHO. I also know of no editor that does that. The setting of the executable bit must be performed explicitly by the user.

That certainly would be a nice feature, not having to be forced to switch to a console to set the rights.

Full ACK.
I could also imagine to add a new option into »Save as«-dialog, to set the rights.

Any other opinions on this? Yet another checkbox in the Save as dialog? In my opinion it would be sufficient to chmod the file on the command line. But on the other hand, it is not much work to add such a checkbox.
What do you think?

A special checkbox would save all my problems ;)
