this is an example of something that can be created as a simple
plug-in by third parties and is pretty far down the list of "really
needed" features compared to the many requests for things that need
to be done at the engine level.
One nice thing about this little community is that helpers like what
you describe can be easliy crafted - and then shared with the rest of
us - so why not make a plugin as you descirbed yourself?
We all want it all, how about having it all? Have a default
autosave for newbies, and a set of preferences for later: continued
autosave, with a changeable time span between autosaves, a message
that comes up that asks if you want to save (a reminder), with Yes,
Never or some number of minutes until ask again, don't ask again,
auto archive, auto archive with delete after so much time, auto
archive every nth save, archive with ask, etc. so many options.
After many people have made their preferences known, perhaps rev dev
could come up with a solution for (nearly) all.
Personally, I like choice, I would like a dialog that would simply
remind me to save with an archive button and a wait button with a
field for a number of minutes (with a default).
