If it would be critical stuff of course not, but window position and last used
color or last setting doesn't belong to 'needs to preserved at all costs'. For
me trade fair trade-off between disk activity and preserving settings. IMHO.
And LibreOffice isn't supposed to crash anyhow :-).

BTW: would be nice if you add the chatlog or directly let people comment in the
bugtracker.. not big fan of 'second hand' info. People have managed to bend the
topic to the desired answer (not saying you do, but people managed to do that
so bit skeptical nowadays).

And I personally like some splitting. They topic between. If writing seen not
problematic at all; or nothing wrong with it. Or that more about development
costs/benefits.

Or what you're suggestion about 'losing' settings.  

You can argue, does it matter. And they answer for me is; yes. As gives insight
what the considerations are. How people are thinking. 

Because this can't happen because we will lose 'some data' - as far i'm aware -
user settings data not being 'super convincing'. Or even bit sad, actually.
So it's or about proofing data being critical; or costs/benefits. Or about who
cares about 2,5 MB writes 2000 a day 365 a year. 

Anyhow still curious how they online variant manages this. I assume this
doesn't happen there, else would not really nice for they server I guess
