Description

I had already few times situations while posting quite large issues in redmine, i accidentally push something, go back or forward, or close tab and so i loose all my information, that i has been entering for let's say quite a long time and this situation is very upseting!!!

There is one solution right now, but it isn't good: Save issue time to time, BUT user that i had assigned to already got mail with issue content at my first save and if user doesn't come to redmine and starts developing by email content, this issue can be incomplete yet.

So one of two solutions would be great feature:

1) Javascript alert on leaving page if issue form has been changed or any data has been entered or change (This can be easily done by binding form.onchange property and on page unload check if form has been changed...)

2) Add new Status: "Draft" where nothing happens when user saves issue with this Status - no emails sent. Or maybe this can be handled in some other way. "Draft" checkbox, etc...

Maybe there are other solutions than i have missed. If there are any, let me know. Thanks.
