 Last night I added a new post, but I didn't publish it, I just left the
 Add New post screen open. I did a few other things and then put the
 computer to sleep. This morning I got up, checked the draft, and then hit
 publish. But the nonces had expired, so I was shown the "Are you sure you
 want to do this?" screen. I hit "try again", but I was returned to the Add
 New Post screen. I really thought I had lost the post. (Oh, the agony.)
 Fortunately, I really hadn't, because it was saved as a draft. But it
 really scared me.

 Instead of causing folks to have a heart-attack, we could direct them to
 the Edit Post screen with the draft they were working on loaded, instead
 of the Add new post screen.
