Comment:

 I can replicate this issue in Firefox 62 on WordPress
 v5.0-alpha-20181001.162241

 Adding a path to `wpCookies.remove` does remove the cookie and allows
 subsequent checks for post data in localstorage, for example:
 {{{
 wpCookies.remove( 'wp-saving-post', '/wp-admin' );
 }}}
 at
 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/src/js/_enqueues/wp/autosave.js#L458

 We'd probably want to provide a path when
 [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/src/js/_enqueues/wp/autosave.js#L419
 setting the cookie], for example `userSettings.url`, so we can use that
 same path when removing.
