Summary

Basically, we should store a backup of a users blog in local storage periodically.

If the user accidentally closes their tab, when they re-open they would be prompted with a "We have detected unsaved changes, would you like to restore to the last backup made on 01-01-2019 at 00:00?"

mentioned in issue #1701

I think that we should maybe show a modal:

You did not previously save your changes, would you like to restore to the backup made at 2019-01-01 00:00:00?

I actually think it should be something like a toast. A modal would be too invasive

Yeah I agree with that, I can see that looking good.

What's going on with this task? There needs to be more context.
