That gets extremely complex, Tim.

Autosave after every action could potentially slow down the UI. Unless
the autosave after every action wrote a journal entry. (This has its own
problems, but does not need to be a 100% perfect solution.)

Autosave after every X minutes is a good idea. That way a person can
control the timing, or disable it.

Autosave on play would, as you point out, need to be an option that can
also be disabled. Keeping in mind that it should be enabled by default.

A computer program must never, ever, ever lose (more than a minute or
two) of a person's work.
