Not really. The need to "save" is becoming less and less relevant. All changes are synced with the cloud and stored immediately. Even in some programming IDEs the need to save is a lot less common.

An optimistic outlook, to be sure. Many Dropbox, iCloud, AWS, etc. users who've been burned by their experiences might beg to differ.
