Warn before an unsaved draft is closed

Hello my name Howard Wilner and im working for automax preowned Framingham,

After losing many an article to carelessly closed tabs, are there any plans of a javascript warning before an unsaved draft is closed?
Warn before closing unsaved draft?
thank you

Well, there’s only one way to do it, it’s not standard and not all browsers support it, so it’s probably not a good idea to put it into the core, but a plugin could be made.
