[Suggestion] Post Auto-save feature

[Coyote]

My electricity isn't third-world so I never have that problem

However, it's a good idea.

My story [Don't Read if you don't want to]

Earlier today (3 hours ago), I began working on a new biography. I was on the post new thread option, I inserted the title. I then started typing the content and a wallie of background information. Suddenly, the electricity went out, and returned 2 seconds later. I switched on the computer, only to see that all my hard work of two hours, is gone. I was indeed upset, but I started over. I began again, from point 0, working my way back through and almost to the point of catching up to where I left off before. An hour later, the electricity went out again, to return 2 seconds later. Expecting no different result than before, all my work, once again was gone. Which leads to my suggestion.

Suggestion

I suggest the installment of an auto save feature. This feature automatically saves your work over a given short time period. Eg. every 2 minutes.
This would prevent many other incidents similar to what happened to me. If I am creating a post, and the web browser immediately shuts down, I can get back, and simply hit the "restore from last auto-save" option at the bottom of the insert text box. Saves us all time and trouble. I even took my time out to search for the feature that can be installed on this forum.

This Mod seems to port this feature to older version of vBulletin.

Still awaiting more opinion on this, and also a comment from Zise would be appreciated.
