I seem to remember some software that had the metaphor of a 'snapshot', with a camera icon, that would save these reference versions (although I don't think it was replacing save, but rather providing another option. The concept of a snapshot in time is not that big a stretch.

The need to do an explicit save remains, to create "checkpoint" versions. There us mental training to do with that, but not as much as with "no saving needed". Something other than the current imagery is needed for that though.

One way to handle this would be to remove the icon along with the need to save. If that could be done, I bet that would unnerve many users, though.
