Comment (by melchoyce):

 Replying to [comment:69 westonruter]:
 > @melchoyce awesome, that is implemented now in the PR. I'm going to get
 it up on an environment for you to test, but if I explicitly click the
 close link should it not throw up a `confirm()` dialog, and if accepted,
 delete the auto-draft since you explicitly didn't want to save it?
 Otherwise, if you close the browser tab I'd consider that to be a non-
 explicit exit of the Customizer and in that case the notice would be
 presented for you to restore?

 I'd keep it simple and always discard the autosave unless you explicitly
 say "restore," like with posts. I don't think we need a confirmation.
