Unclear that emulator edits the .bot file

See original GitHub issue

Version

Emulator version: 4.2.0

Describe the bug

It is not clear that the emulator is essentially a manager for .bot files that will add/delete things from the underlying file.

To Reproduce

I had opened a .bot file and wanted to close it. The only indication I had that something was open was the “development” endpoint on the left-hand side.

1

So I right-click -> Remove and realize it deletes the endpoint from my file altogether.

Expected behavior

It should be clear that the emulator will edit the underlying .bot file.

We should show a modal dialog along the lines of “Remove <foo> from your .bot file? This action cannot be undone.” [ ] Don’t show this warning again.

[ cancel ] [ Yes, remove it ]"

pending larger discussion about the .bot file in general.
