Steps to reproduce
I was typing away like crazy, and after 10 minutes of text, i wanted to check,
if the line breaks would look good in landscape mode so I wouldn't end up
with super-long sentences in my email.
I rotated it once to the left, then back to the right.
Expected behavior
Let me continue to write my draft!
Actual behavior
The draft writing was gone - the approximately draft away like never written?
Not saved anything, and I have to start all over again...
