I think that would be consistent with the rest of Emacs and even other
desktop applications like LibreOffice. But EBDB also has auto-save (as

I lack knowledge of the situation and feel insecure myself in the choice
of software forge, but still I would like give you the following URL:
<https://sourcehut.org/alpha-details/>
