ENV: WP trunk r8759

I had written my greatest post ever. Clicking publish, I found myself staring at the login page. I don't know what that happened, but I think that is the lesser issue.

It's easy to reproduce by manually logging off while writing.

If logged out while writing an article:

1) the feedback, if any, when auto-save fails sucks. We need to help the person preserve their work

2) After clicking Save/Publish and logging back in, my work is gone. Using the Firefox 3 Back button returning to wp-admin/post-new.php I'm crying because of the blank page that confronts me."	defect (bug)	closed	high	2.7	General	2.7	critical	fixed	needs-patch
