It's not clear from reading the description on the project page, whether or not this is actually saving the entity (potentially creating a new revision), or if it is saving a temporary version somewhere else.

Are you able to clarify this?

No revisions are being used, autosave states are saved in their own storage. We cannot save autosave_states as revisions because of eventual DB constraints requiring fully validated entity, which is not necessary given for an autosave_state.

Does this answer your question?

Awesome, thank you.

I wouldn't want them to save as revisions anyway, since they aren't really revisions.

@rooby, it would be great if could post your opinion in a Drupal core issue - #3029488: Implement Autosave.

Thank you.
