 I often save a post, and find that only half of the post has been
 transferred and saved. This is undoubtedly due to my incredibly slow
 internet connection, but it is still extremely frustrating when I loose a
 whole load of changes by having to revert to the last revision to get the
 rest of my post back. And of course if it's the first time I've saved it,
 I have to start from scratch. (Yes, I should save more often, but (a) I
 get more useless revisions and (b) it takes soooo long on my
 connection...)

 Proposed solution:[[BR]]
 Before saving, create an md5 hash of the post using JavaScript. Submit
 this with the post, and compare it to the md5 hash of the received data
 before saving.
