Description

Autosave not working if switching tab immediately after input

Hi,

So I noticed if I edit tab A and then quickly switch to tab B then tab A will not be autosaved and changes could potentially disappear if the device is shut down suddenly.

Is there any way to configure autosave so that it also saves all open tabs which have unsaved changes?

Research direction

The issue provides no file or test names. Start by reproducing the behavior: edit a buffer in tab A, switch immediately to tab B, and inspect whether tab A is autosaved. Trace the autosave and tab-switch entry points; done means unsaved changes in every open tab are saved before they can be lost.
