C-x s runs the command save-some-buffers,
which will ask
  Type SPC or `y' to save the current buffer;
  DEL or `n' to skip the current buffer;
  RET or `q' to give up on the save (skip all remaining buffers);
  C-g to quit (cancel the whole command);
  ! to save all remaining buffers;
  C-r to view this buffer;
  d to view changes in this buffer;
  or . (period) to save the current buffer and exit.
But nowhere in that list is there a choice to just let you visit that
buffer. E.g.,
  C-r to view this buffer;
still "waits out there in the parking lot (minibuffer) with the engine
running, waiting for you to come back out. He just won't buzz-off."
