Comment (by nacin):

 [attachment:7392.8.diff] fixes this situation:
  * Add a sentence.
  * Let autosave occur.
  * Remove the sentence.
  * Let autosave occur.
  * At this point, the autosave should be deleted.

 It only deletes the autosave when there is an existing autosave, because
 JS handles the situation when there is no existing autosave (where an
 autosave is identical to the current post) and because it's actually more
 difficult to handle that case.
