 I don't think it's a bug:
 with ":q!" you choose not to save changes and changes are effectively not saved.
 If you make a mistake, then ":wq", then choose to reedit, then ":q!", the master.passwd
 file is not update and do not contain the mistake. 
 I don't see anything strange in this behaviour and think this PR can be closed.
 Best Regards
