[Bug 897469] [NEW] Simple Scan crashes result in massive data loss

 

Public bug reported:

As a matter of fact Simple Scan crashes often. Bad drivers, Out Of
Memory Problems, ...

These problems should be fixed, but for the meanwhile it would be worthwhile to minimize data and time lost in such cases.
For the bad drivers cases there already is Bug #564357 but especially for the OOM problem and to take some pressure from the complex Bug #564357 I suggest to look for other ways to minimize data loss.

Ideas: 
- save work to temporary files, and optimally allow to recover from such files (can perfectly be combined with the feature request to manually load a file at startup to add pages to that file).
- ...
