Client-side storage would be fantastic (and avoid unnecessary server
round-trips). We discussed this in original planning but didn't get
round to implementing it yet.
Surely plenty of people want to work on drafts from home at work?
Of course, we shouldn't be editing Wikipedia at work, should we? ;-)
