    Or you could install a mouse/keystroke logger or take screenshots of X every few minutes and then we could get rid of those annoying "Are you sure you want to discard your changes" dialogs from all our applications :)

      Oh sure, if you want to have to retype everything. I kind of like the keystroke logger idea though. That's nice.
