A few questions and suggestions on drafts:
1. Is there a time limit for drafts to be saved? If so, can this be extended for as long as possible?
Unfortunately, I had a long post saved as a draft, which disappeared last night. Yet, it was saved successfully over the previous night.
Since I tend to write bits of posts here and there, rather than in a single sitting, this feature is particularly useful.
Had a user ask how long a draft is saved when they click the save draft button?

For this single instance, it would be appreciated if this could be checked. If so, I'll PM you the thread details.

4. Can you enable auto-save when writing a post?
This can help in case users forget to save their draft, mis-hit the 'save draft' button by clicking the 'delete draft' button instead, etc.
ACP > Setup > Options > Messages "Save drafts every 1 seconds" ^This is an EXCELLENT feature, but it only works for people writing their initial post. This feature doesn't work for people who are EDITING a pre-existing post, wrote 2000 extra words (without pressing Save), then exits that...
