Hi Cor,

I just entered the last case you mentioned: I closed a document via keystrokes
without saving it, I think I've lost about half a day of work. I was under the
impression that the autosave function would save me, but boy was I wrong. It's
just recovers documents in case of crashes, grrr.

The autosave function in Microsoft Office really saves the original document
every 10-15 minutes. So if you close a document without saving you only lose
about 10 minutes of work. I guess the function in Libre/Openoffice was needed
because the suite crashed quite a lot. It almost seems as if none of the
developers envisioned a use case where the suite would survive a complete
working day without crashing ;-)

I will file a new bug report. I really would advise to set the priority as
high, since with increasing popularity comes increasing responsibility.
