Hi folks,
Thanks for addressing this! The usual behavior of windows programs on restart
or shutdown is to ask the user to save unsaved files, rather than saving them
silently. The current patch to save automatically is better than losing data,
but prompting the user I think would be the best thing. Or even having emacs
abort the shutdown and give a message like "emacs cancelled shutdown due to
unsaved files."

Yes, I tried it. Emacs just auto-saved the changed buffers with no questions
asked.

Done as git commit 6435f41. Thanks for your help, Eli.
Closing.
