Turning off Ironman?

Is there a way to turn off Ironman and continue an existing game with saving/reloading enabled? I don't mind getting wiped out by poor decisions or even bad luck, but dying to bugs or poor design decisions is really frustrating. I'd like to play in normal mode and only reload when absolutely necessary, but I'd also like to keep the soldiers I've developed playing in Ironman.

 

I've googled everything I can think of and gotten nothing, so I suspect it's impossible, but I thought I'd ask...

Maybe something different is possible.

 

You can use RestartLevel command with keybinds.

 

If the mission goes awfully bad, it can be restarted with the button (don't hit it accidentally).

Well, who dont want live with temptation to cheat Ironman mode dont read further:

 

Ironman mode save as every normal game, with difference its only one save. So the save is somewhere :) For Win7 its under Documents - My games - Xcom .... just made copy of this file and overwrite back when needed. I was backuping my progress this way every hour and Im very glad to do that, because once I get stuck in terror mission where enemies were on unaccessable roof and I wasnt able to even saw them, of course they didnt move and in middle game no jet pack suite. Reload was only option. Really wasnt in mood to lost whole elite squad to bug.
