Logged out while editing

[rixx]

If you edit an issue and keep it open in a tab for some time, your session may end. But if you click "save", there is no indication of an error at all, despite your changes not being saved! Only upon reloading the page you will be redirected to the login screen, with all your changes being irrecoverably lost. Especially with larger edits, this is quite frustrating.

I understand that mitigating this completely is complex (eg maintaining an edit log/drafts in the browser's localStorage would be a way), but the least gitea could do would be a show of an error message instead of pretending that changes have been saved correctly.

Does this really still happen with the notification event stream?
