Can someone please explain this part of the NSPersistentDocument docs?

"Although this tutorial does not aim to cover all the possible features you might implement in an application, some functionality is omitted due to limitations in NSPersistentDocument itself. Because of the way Core Data operates, it is not possible to easily support autosaving in anNSPersistentDocument-based application. Core Data cannot save to a store and maintain the same changed state in a managed object context, all while keeping an unsaved stack around as the current document. For similar reasons, NSPersistentDocument does not support Save To operations."

http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/NSPersistentDocumentTutorial/01_Task/chapter_2_section_4.html#/ /apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40002829-SW5

What do they mean by auto-save?

I seem to be able to save my document (from the app's Save menu item), and the Undo command is still available. I don't understand how I can save manually, but it couldn't save automatically, and I don't get the bit about "all while keeping an unsaved stack around".

TIA,
