That has never been the intention. "cvs commit" removes the edit on the 
file, so you do not have to do "cvs unedit" (except if the file has not 
actually changed, in which case "cvs commit" will do nothing).

>With tortoise 1.6.6 / cvsnt 2.0.34 it seems that it breaks when doing this (previously I was using tort 1.6.2 / cvsnt 2.0.11) also when the unedit breaks, all the unwatched files become read-only.

If a file becomes read-only, it is because there is a watch set on it.
