Are you using autosave?  I haven't tried this on the current POV 
version, but I've noticed that in older versions, the "clean code/dirty 
code" detector DOES NOT DISTINGUISH between changes with the same number 
of keystrokes with a Ctrl-Z between them.  That is, if you type a line, 
save, use Ctrl-Z to undo the last character, and then type a different 
character, the editor doesn't recognize that the code has changed.

I know I'm not explaining this very well, since my fingers and my brain 
are all very cold right now ;) but if you watch the save button 
(grayed-out when the code is "clean") you can see this happen.
