I also go back and edit published posts -- it may be that I am just going back to fix a typo, or in the case of my bike trails site, I might be importing a GPX track for a route that someone sent me, adding or fixing a URL related to the trail, etc.

Just because the post is published doesn't mean I might not want to keep editing it, and definitely if I am in editing mode, I want to be able to stay on the post screen as long as I want to (i.e. save and continue editing).

Lots of people use WordPress for things other than casual blogging (it's a great CMS in my opinion), and I imagine some are of the same opinion as Dave and me.

Hi, ok a bit more info on what I am doing and why I think we need an Auto-Save or Save and Continue Editing button in W 2.5.

Because of the way I use WP I re-edit posts and pages days/weeks/months even years after their original publish date. This is because I like to update the content, usually with related links to external sites.

When I edit a post I like to quickly check everything is ok before moving on to the next post. In WP 2.3 I have 2 window (tabs) open in my browser - one where I edit the post, then click Save and Continue Editing and the other window (tab) for previewing the changes. [...]
