 When a plugin is written as a class, if a class variable is modified in
 the 'content_save_pre', by the time WordPress calls the 'notices' action
 the class variable has the same value it did before 'content_save_pre'. I
 have attached a plugin called test.php to demonstrate this. Make and save
 a new post in the post editor to test it. This may be a symptom of a
 larger problem (or feature?) that global variables are not preserved
 between those two calls (as demonstrated in testglobal.php)

 I am using WordPress 2.3.1 on PHP 5 (mod_php) on an Apache2 server.
