- When writing or editing a post, a draft is automatically saved and reloaded if you close the page and come back to it later. I find this very helpful (particularly when switching between devices). However, sometimes I change my mind about a saved draft and want to discard it to start a new edit from scratch. There is a "Cancel" button next to the save button for this purpose:
- The problem is that this "Cancel" button is missing when editing my user profile. This means that when I go to the "Edit" tab my previous draft changes are present, with no way to undo them or discard them. I would have to go back and reverse each change by hand before I could start a new edit.
- Please could the "Edit" tab of the user profile page have a similar "Cancel" button?
