 Scheduling for the wp_cron job that deletes expired auto-drafts is in
 `post_new.php`. If an user doesn't load the New Post screen in a while,
 there may be a lot of old auto-drafts piling up.

 The auto-draft posts are created in `get_default_post_to_edit()` (when
 `$create_in_db = true`). It makes sense to schedule the deletion of old
 auto-drafts at the same time.
