That is a TODO then, isn't it? I can't find it in the SCUMM TODO page.
 Judging by the discussion already made, this is a missing feature of the
SCUMM
engine, and the goal should be to implement these screens properly at some
point.
ScummVM's save/load screens should be enabled only if requested by the user.

A warning dialog could be thrown for this when the game starts, and a
relevant
option is selected couldn't it?
