Comment(by markjaquith):

 1. creates a post with post_status=auto-draft
  2. First auto- or manual save turns it into a real draft
  3. when auto-drafts are created, it deletes ones older than one week
  4. you now always have a post ID on the post edit screen, which fixes all
 those attachment- and meta-related bugs. No more fetching new nonces. No
 more negative post IDs.

 There are two areas I was confused about, which could use another look.
 The auto-save collision code in {{{wp_write_post()}}}. I left it how it
 was... keying off of $temp_ID. Not sure how to update this.
