[Bug 1072989] [NEW] Gwibber Ought to Remember a Draft of My Status Update

 

Public bug reported:

Whether I use the "Update Status" feature in the Unity Messaging Menu or
the status updater builtin to Gwibber (which seems to be the same
thing), any click outside the dialog dismisses the dialog and dumps the
entered text.

I'm okay with the former action, but not the latter. I see no reason
that Gwibber couldn't maintain a buffer of the text at least until the
service ends. It's irritating that a single click can ruin a well-
crafted post.
