I never hide minor edits, so it's not a big deal to *me*. However, I gather that this would be helpful to other people.
As for saving often, that's certainly good policy. But you may have to save in an external editor instead. Indeed, you may want to do all of the editing externally, only copying the text to the Wikipedia edit box when you want to preview the wiki markup.
My browser crashes more often than my external editor, in any case.
