Comment:

 In 25272.patch:
 - Remove wp_ajax_autosave().
 - Introduce `autosave( $post_data )` (in PHP).
 - Remove the autosave nonce, use the `edit_post . $post_id` nonce instead.
 - Change post_status from auto-draft to draft in
 `_wp_translate_postdata()` (before the "What to do based on which button
 they pressed" part).
 - Change `wp_create_post_autosave()` to accept either the post data or
 post_id.
 - Update `post_preview()`.
 - Refactor autosave.js:
  - Use heartbeat for transport.
  - Fix disabling and enabling of the Submit box buttons and links.
  - Fix behavior when users click "Preview".
  - Fix temporarily stopping of autosaves to avoid collisions.
  - Add `wp.autosave.remote.disable()` and
 `wp.autosave.remote.triggerSave()`.
  - Add `'before-autosave'` and `'after-autosave'` custom events. Use the
 after-autosave event to load the edit slug part under the title field.
