[GNC] Database storage

[Michael or Penny Novack]

However the behavior of autosave is a pet peeve of mine. The behavior I 
would like to see is for gnucash to have two states, "not in the middle 
of entering a transaction" an "in the middle of entering a transaction"  
I want autosave to pop up only when in the first state (if the timer 
goes off when in the second state -- wait till returned to the first state)

It's not the time interval I want to change but the state behavior. If I 
am in the middle of entering a transaction my answer is always going to 
be NO! (I will finish the transaction and then manually save -- I might 
also cancel the transaction and then manually save. But in the middle? 
WHAT has been saved and what hasn't?)

OR --- if there is a formal definition like "autosave in the middle of 
entering a transaction is a cancel, followed by a save" I could live 
with that.
