Using Resolve from ribbon I'm able to postpone resolving some part of
file and mark file as resolved anyway ... why not from closing dialog?

That button is not in dialog when trying to close a file. On other hand
there is Save in ribbon too ...

But...

Just I had case when update result in conflict. There were new line
style changes only so there is no conflict shown in T-Merge. When I
closed T-Merge question Save | Exit | Cancel apeared. I used Save,
because I wanted to save resolved version. That happen and disk I have
resolved version of file (without "<<<<<<< .mine"), however file state
is still "conflicted".

My suggestion remains: Resolve option. As for rare case Save can be used
as well it can be kept, but Resolve is what I would expect here.
