 Sometimes a user may edit a post for hours without saving it. We have
 autosaves to prevent any data loss. However in some cases there may be an
 user or a server error and the content may not be submitted or the post
 may be "empty". This doesn't happen often, but is usually devastating for
 the users. They just lost hours of work!

 To safeguard against these cases, we can create post revisions when the
 autosave data is significantly different than the existing post.
