#22687: auto-drafts are improperly stored as the first revision
-------------------+--------------------------
 Reporter:  nacin  |       Type:  defect (bug)
   Status:  new    |   Priority:  normal
Milestone:  3.5    |  Component:  Post Types
  Version:  trunk  |   Severity:  normal

 This came out of #22686 from maxcutler.

 Steps to reproduce this bug:
  * Create a post.
  * Inspect its revisions. It should have two: [Current Revision] and one
 more. The earlier one is what would be listed in the meta box, so click it
 to see both.
  * Compare [Current Revision] with the original revision. This "original
 revision" is actually timestamped with the moment the post screen was
 entered and the auto-draft was created.

 In 3.4, the comparisons are identical. In 3.5, the original revision has a
 post title of "Auto Draft". This was likely the result of WP_Post
 (#21309).

 Note if you entered content before autosaved fired, it does not appear in
 the original revision either way. Only the title.

 In 3.5, we should try to replicate 3.4's behavior and copy the title over.

 In 3.6, we should try to avoid the initial auto-draft-base revision from
 being stored. It is misleading, especially since an auto-draft may stick
 around for a few days before being used (either via an open tab or an ID
 held by QuickPress). A revision can only happen to a post once it is
 saved, and auto-drafts don't count.
