This is the current behaviour:
- add / edit a cast
- start filling up the description field
- have an idea! you need to add this tag before you forget it.
- Add a tag
The content of the description field is flushes without warning.
A simple window.onbeforeunload and another event observer could warn before emptying the field. But it seems to me like a patch to a problem which could be solved using a different angle.
