New features for SimpleWeb: drafts, auto-save, version-tracking

Drafts with auto-save and version-trackin

This one is HUGE and will be making all of our lives much easier and a bit more fun as well. The text-editor now includes a "Save Draft" feature that allows you to save versions of your content as drafts without taking them live on the site. You can then restore any of your previously saved drafts at any time with a single click. Not only that, the system will auto-save your drafts for you every five minutes to avoid the possibility of losing your work. So relax. That big blog post you're working on won't disappear if the power fails. We're looking out for you.

Protection against losing your work. The auto-save feature will save a draft of what you are working on every five minutes. So, you'll always have a back-up. Plus, you can manually save a draft as well at any time.
Work on changes without taking them live. If you want to queue up some changes to your page but you don't want them to go live just yet, simply save them as a draft. Then, when you're ready to publish, just load up your saved draft and take it live.
Recall any previous version at any time. A simple drop-down box displays every previously saved version of your content (see image below). Load one up with a single click.
The drafts functionality is available anywhere that the text editor is used. This includes all text-elements, blog posts and calendar event detail pages.

The bottom of the text editor now contains a "Save Draft" button and a drop down for loading any previously-saved draft.
