Normally the thought of an application saving changes without my say-so would irk me, but for quick TODOs, it's alright.

@neauoire That any application makes you think about saving at all is an artificial complication arising from the differences in price and speed of core and disk storage [¹] which we've got so thoroughly baked into our systems and ways of thinking that we hardly notice it now.

[¹] Yes, I really mean 1970s little rings on wires and rusty dinner plate-sized bits of metal.

@edavies I disagree, but to each their own metaphors :)

@neauoire Oh interesting, I wasn't aware anybody disliked autosave 🤔 Only reason I ever got irked by it was if an application didn't have undo. Then every keystroke feels like a minefield.
