Sorry, NOT acceptable. I do NOT want to have to change every single 
notebook. Why should I?

I think there are many people who dislike the auto-save option. I will give 
you just one example. I like to have a master version of the notebook, then 
I want to experiment. When I experiment, I just DON"T SAVE. So the master 
remains unchanged. With autosave, my master notebook will change WITHOUT ME 
NOTICING. You say, you can revert to the last manual save, but that's a 
*useless 
feature* because next time I edit the master notebook, I may want to make a 
permanent change, after which I will manually save. This save will now 
contain both the desired changes as well as the unwanted one. Now I have 
lost the ability to revert. It's a complete mess. Please don't ask me to 
change my habit, which I have formed in decades of using computers--not 
going to happen. 

Regardless of whether the Jupyter notebook developers agree or not, many of 
us have some very good reasons why we want to turn off auto-save 
PERMANENTLY. It should be an easy option and a user's choice. 

Just please make a version of the custom JS file work. Is it too much to 
ask?  Don't make us conform to the tool, make the tool conform to what the 
user wants. 

Sorry for the rant, I get pretty worked up by things like those, having 
been burnt several times...
