What you really need for your case is not an auto-backup feature, but atomic save operations. Instead of writing over the existing file when you save, GIMP should write to a temporary file in the target directory. And only if it succeeds in writing this file completely should it move the temporary file over the existing file. That way you wouldn't have lost your file completely. Please feel free to open a bug report for this.
