 Clicking Preview before Save will result in Blank, New Post

 ENV: WP trunk r9039 (2.7-hemorrhage)

 STEPS

  1. Go to Write Post
  1. Enter content in Title and Post
  1. Click Preview Post

 ACTION RESULTS

 A new window/tab is opened with a blank, Write Post page. Relative URL is
 wp-admin/post-new.php?preview=true

 EXPECTED RESULTS

 Obvious


 ADDITIONAL DETAILS

 If you click Save Draft first, then it behaves as expected. URL is
 updated.

 Aside, during autosave, it's a strange effect that Preview is the only
 button that stays available. I would just make it consistent and have them
 all disable and also display a message right below the buttons that
 "Autosaving..." (I can file a new ticket if preferred.)
