Description:
If you edit a view and then select File -> New, the current schema is deleted without any warning.

Note that creating a new View sets the schema's "dirty" flag, but editing an existing View does not. This problem may occur elsewhere

How to repeat:
Open a schema.
Create a view and edit it.
Save the file.
Make a change to the view.
Select File -> New
The existing schema is deleted without warning.

Suggested fix:
Make sure any editing changes mark the current schema as needing a change.

A note has been added to the 5.15 changelog: 

Creating a new file after changing an existing file with modifications could lead to the original being deleted without prompting to save the changes.
