Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

I do not see how Restart (as opposed to a proposed Clear option) loses 
anything.  However, closing without saving definitely anything since a save.  
Moreover, even after saving Shell once, there is no Save on Close box displayed 
(as for editor windows) when closing Shell without saving.  This has been 
discussed somewhere (maybe StackOverflow) but I do not find an issue.

Raymond, would it be sufficient if saving once would mean that one could not 
close (or clear the window) without being prompted to save again?  What if we 
add timed autosaves #21152 (based on your comment on #21140, msg215485), or 
autosave (or autoappend) with each prompt?
