But there are some cases which makes it difficult in general: - If it would trigger a normal "save all" and you have just created some new files or are in the middle of a refactoring you will get suddenly save and message dialogs. I personally would hate that interruption. - I often open a file, change something and save it as another name. An autosave would play havoc here. - It would be better if the autosave would save the changed files in a separate location (e.g. .lazarus/autosave), which can then be restored on next start.

Wouldn't that accumulate over time so that everything becomes green? You need some "reset".
