Autosave and less intrusive save dialog
It would be nice to have the application save automatically after periods of inactivity so one could leave the window without cleanly exiting the app.
I have used other online drawing services such as dabbleboard and I can close my window without having to "clean exit" the app.
Also there is ABSOLUTELY NO NEED to have the OK button dialog each time one saves and additionally having the notification at the lower right corner. Please just leave the second one

Hi Hasan,
You can use Ctrl + S to save your diagram. For other shortcuts, please check Help from the toolbar.
It's better to save your diagram before you leave the editing page because it'll load faster when you open it next time, and the preview on the diagram detail page will be updated.

You can also force saving without the save dialog dropping from top right by ctrl+s (command+s).

Each operations on the Editor are automatically saved.
As long as you don't click "No" when you click the blue x button on the upper right corner and are asked "Diagram has been modified. Do you want to save the changes?", you' should be able to see the latest diagram when you reopen the Editor.

It would be great if saving could be done as a background task. ctrl+s takes too much time (or make saving take less time).

Auto-save is vital for web applications like this - even the best browsers are still too fragile to be safe without frequent saving.
