But what if you are leaving the page because you changed your mind, and don't wish to save the changes after all? This, for me, is the common case, so i would not want the browser to suddenly commit an unfinished draft.

If you’re worried about losing the old version, it should keep a history. If you want to erase the new version, there should be an explicit action to do that.
