 Easy to lose draft post if logged off for some reason

 ENV: WP trunk r8759

 I had written my greatest post ever. Clicking publish, I found myself
 staring at the login page. I don't know what that happened, but I think
 that is the lesser issue.

 It's easy to reproduce by manually logging off while writing.

 If logged out while writing an article:

 1) the feedback, if any, when auto-save fails sucks. We need to help the
 person preserve their work

 2) After clicking Save/Publish and logging back in, my work is gone. Using
 the Firefox 3 Back button returning to wp-admin/post-new.php I'm crying
 because of the blank page that confronts me.
