 This is my first Trac ticket, so I appologize if formatted incorrectly.

 My WP install has 1 Administrator, 3 Editors, and over 10
 Authors/Contributors. The text editor would generally show a warning with
 a user's name if it was being edited when opened with versions prior to WP
 3.0.

 However since upgrade, we've realized we've continuously had several
 instances of accidentally overwriting our own edits. After some
 investigating, I found it was because WP was no longer showing the RED
 warning at the top.

 I was able to reproduce the problem several times on my install. To
 isolate whether it was a plugin causing a problem, I created a fresh
 install and tried a few cases again. If a user is editing a post and an
 Editor opens the editor during that time, it no longer shows a warning.

 I've also documented the issue in the forums here:
