I had a case like this in Belgium as well, today. Someone that
apparently was screwing around in live editing mode, not realising that
all changes were being uploaded.
The old Potlatch, before the Edit with save mode was added, asked very
specifically if you wanted to be playing around to test, or be serious
and edit. The current Edit with save vs Edit live modes make no real
sense to a beginner, not in the way the old dialog conveyed that meaning.
