Default Updating an Event Sent

How do we change minor details of a meeting that's already on the Outlook
calendar, without re-sending ("send update") the meeting to everyone? Quite
often we just want to make a spelling correction, change mtg accommodations,
or add instructions in the note portion that our receptionist can read about
setting up the room etc. i.e. "Don't forget that Joe Smith likes Diet Soda".
However, we don't want to re-send the message to anyone because people get
confused! Outlook 2007 only gives 2 choices now "Don't Save Changes" or
"Save Changes and Send Update." Whatever happened to the MOSTUSEFUL third
choice, "Save Changes, but Don't Send"?? Is there a way to force this third
choice? We are quite frustrated that it was removed.

They should only resend when you change the time, date or location. Editing
the body should not force updates.

What addins do you have installed? I know at least one forced updates for
body changes (live map addin). Others may as well.
