 This issue is affecting plugins that uses ajax to update values. I have a
 custom meta box to update post custom meta with ajax. If i have to update
 the content and the meta value (with ajax) at the same time, the main
 Publish/Update button is ignoring previous value saved with ajax. In order
 to save meta value with ajax, i have to update the value and then refresh
 the page, to update the content.
 Is also affecting "post_views_count" plugin. If i have to edit an old
 post, and while updating, the post has new views, after i hit Update
 button, will ignore the new views of the post and will save the old number
 of views.
 If there is already a small Update button on Custom Fields that updates
 meta value with ajax, the main Publish/Update button shouldn't update the
 meta fields.
