Hi, ZyX and Jan!

I've encountered similar problems in the past, because I have a BufRead/BufWinEnter autocmd which sets 'nomodifiable' if 'readonly' is set. At one point I was doing a global "set nomodifiable" but now I do "setlocal" instead. Otherwise, any new buffers created also have 'nomodifiable' set.

Jan, if you've got a similar autocmd, you should make the same fix.

ZyX, if the new buffer your plugin is creating should always be modifiable, it would be smart to set 'modifiable' explicitly just in case it inherits a bad value.
