Mat, Tiddlywiki does have access to local storage / cookies even without the local storage plugin, which is designed to go further and store changed tiddlers. Perhaps an addon to tiddlywiki that stores the last few text fields a bit like utilities such as your Typio would support more resilience on this.
I built a note taker for in class some time ago and found the need to click done to ensure my changes were saved in the wiki, even if it was not saved to file very frustrating. I now use a method to edit the text field such that every character is saved and with autosave on, I am confident I will not loose a byte. This is especially important on mobile where it is so easy to accidentally select some text and erase it with a keystroke. By staying in the editor ctrl-z Undo and ctrl-x Redo is available should you accidently damage you notes, this is not available after a done and re-open. I also make use of a done/save and keep open button.
