 I think we could probably just cause the preview to be lost when you
 navigate away. If this was in Screen Options or something (not saying it
 belongs there), auto-saving makes sense. On the profile form with a save
 button, it does not. I don't think the "unexpectedly" is actually
 unexpected. Could be worth a user test on asking a user to change their
 color scheme.
