--- Comment #9 from Luke Kendall <[email protected]> ---
I've just done a little test, and I don't think so.

On the occasions when I have looked in the backup area, it is usually empty.

I just modified an open file; my auto-recovery backup interval is set to 10
mins.

At that point, the auto-recovery area is empty (not too surprising, since I try
to ensure all my files are saved before I stop working).  I currently have 4
open files.

$ ls -la ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user/backup
drwxrwx--x 15 luke kendall 4096 Feb 27 01:24 ..
drwxrwx--x  2 luke kendall 4096 Feb 26 19:38 .


So I waited more than 10 mins, enough time for the auto-recovery to have saved
a copy of the modified file.

The file had indeed been created in the backup area.

$ ls -la ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user/backup
drwxrwx--x 15 luke kendall   4096 Feb 27 01:29 ..
drwxrwx--x  2 luke kendall   4096 Feb 27 01:29 .
-rw-------  1 luke kendall 223525 Feb 27 01:29 tweets.odt_0.odt

So the auto-recovery file is there.

I then saved the modified file, and the backup file was removed.

$ ls -la ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user/backup
drwxrwx--x 15 luke kendall 4096 Feb 27 01:32 ..
drwxrwx--x  2 luke kendall 4096 Feb 27 01:32 .

At 1:42 I checked again but this time the backup file was NOT there, although
the directory modification time had changed - pretty suspicious!

$ ls -la ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user/backup
drwxrwx--x 15 luke kendall 4096 Feb 27 01:42 ..
drwxrwx--x  2 luke kendall 4096 Feb 27 01:42 .

So the behaviour Andrew is quite similar what I am seeing now with LO 5.1.0.3
on Linux 64 bit.

It's possible that I had not modified the "tweets" file after I had reopened
it, until just now for this test.  I.e. maybe my mods to it were the first
changes to *that* file since I'd started using LO 5.1.0.3.
