Comment (by azaozz):

 Generally autosave needs a refresh/refactoring. WP_Ajax_Response and
 wpAjax.parseAjaxResponse() pass errors coming from WP_Error when saving a
 post. For autosave these used to be displayed under the editor. That was
 removed/hidden couple of years ago. As far as I remember the reason was
 that these are intermittent "dead-end" errors and the user cannot do
 anything to fix them. These errors used to be somewhat more common when we
 had negative post_id (before auto-draft was implemented).

 Currently if there is error when saving the post, the message "Saving
 Draft..." that is shown while waiting for the autosave response, is not
 updated. Although this is not a regression it probably should be fixed.
 Instead of the "Draft saved at..." message we could show the actual error
 or perhaps just "Autosave error".
