 1. Edit any post or page that has at least one comment in the post editor.
 1. Make changes to the comment / add new comment
 1. Attempt to leave the page in the browser, update the post, or click
 quick edit on another comment.
 1. The changes are lost.

 We need to prompt the user that their changes will be lost and handle the
 response.

 Similar implementation that can possibly be leveraged -

 Would need to build on the solution of
 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/29457#comment:4 when dealing with a
 user updating the post during a comment edit.
