We reach here the limit of what a machine can do for the human.
Using computers supposes a minimum of knowledge. And saving a document is the
*very* basic.
Not reading warnings on quit is a user error which is only a user error, not a
defect and not software design failure.
I guess, like the children you tell 3 times : "don't touch the oven!" and who do
it anyway, your user will have learned from her mistake and will save her
documents in the future. That's experience. That's part of live.
Beside those simple principles, there is a majority of users who save their
documents and read warnings. Such a feature would be a pain for them because:
- the software would do things they don't expect
- the hard drive would be trashed with every possible temp files
- some sensitive and secret info might remain on the machine while the user
didn't wanted this.
You might say: "make this 'save everything always' function optional!", ok but
because the majority has no problem with it, it would be off by default.
And I doubt that a user who is not aware about the fact that saving document is
important will have the idea to look for and the capacity to find such an
option.
Conclusion: WONTFIX.
