Description

I noticed and heard from several students returning to popcode after using a different editor that it is frustrating when they command S. Currently it gives the browser defualt option. Can we diasable this or maybe include a visual indicator to note that their work is saved.

Research direction

Start by searching the JavaScript editor code for save handling and keyboard event handling. Confirm the desired behavior with maintainers because the issue leaves two options open; done means Command-S no longer triggers the browser default, with any agreed saved-state feedback covered.
