Bug Description
Binary package hint: gobby
It would be great if gobby autosaved documents. Like, just every now and then (5s?) save the document to XDG_CACHE_
And perhaps somehow make it discoverable. That's not necessary though. Autosaving would at least technically help prevent data loss if there are server issues or if something goes wrong.

It's unlikely that there will be new features in Gobby 0.4.12. If there is an unexpected connection loss to the server then you can still save your documents though.
Gobby 0.4.93 does have autosave (it's configurable in the preferences). It also creates records in ~/.infinote-records which can be used to recover document contents after a crash
