#14407: Auto Drafts can overwrite one another

     Type:  defect (bug)  |      Status:  new                     
 Priority:  normal        |   Milestone:  Awaiting Review         
Component:  Editor        |     Version:  3.0                     
 Severity:  normal        |    Keywords:  needs-patch dev-feedback

 Steps to reproduce:

 1. Open "New Post", Open "New Post" in a background tab (Time between
 actions: doesnt matter, Only the order of the below steps matters)
 2. Enter a Title/Content into the First window, and publish the post, Wait
 for the "Post Published!" confirmation
 3. Switch to the 2nd tab, Enter Title/Content into 2nd instance, and
 Publish the post, Wait for Confirmation
 4. Check the post listing, You'll only find the 2nd post.
 5. Check the revision for that post, You'll see the 2nd post overwrote the
 1st post.

 I'm able to reproduce it every time.. As long as 2 new post windows are
 opened at the same time (before either being published) publishing either
 form will overwrite one another.

 2 solutions:
  * NEW autodraft created for EVERY instance of the post-new screen, rather
 than just re-using the last unused autodraft
  * Upon first save of a Autodraft:
    * Has Autodraft already been saved by another process? Give it a New
 ID, and update the form to recognise that
