Joomla! has a default session life time of 15 minutes. When the 15 minutes
are past and you press the save button all the unsaved data is gone.
However we need this session check for security reasons.

So wouldn't it be great if we received a message (generated with
Javascript so without page refresh) if our session is expired with the
possibility to restore is? For example this:

I think I can build this feature if people are interested in it. So please
tell me what you guys think :)

Not if you leave the complete page. (if so, we have a bug because this happens quite often on my website)

it happens when you do another login in a different tab/browser. but that's expected behaviour.

There is supposed to be a keepalive behavior loaded on basically any page with a submittable form (front and back end) to help keep down the number of session related timeout issues. If you're not getting this keepalive with a core extension, then either it's not being loaded or there is an issue with the keepalive script. There should not be a need for this proposal to be coded as Joomla's supposed to be taking care of keeping your session alive already.

it seems not all create/edit views have the keepalive
See this PR #11849 for com_menus edit item

I am closing this proposal. As stated Joomla is supposed to be keeping alive those pages and if it isnt then its a bug that needs fixing
