You Are Autosave
Show a warning when you haven't saved in a while.
No more surprises when auto-save doesn't work! If your file hasn't been saved for a while, show a warning. Now You Are Autosave!
Two timeouts can be set:
- when to start nagging, and
- when to reach full panic mode.
And yes the only way to get rid of the red (themable, of course) is to actually save your file.

Draw text in the viewport when it gets really red. Just to let people know what's going on, and that it's not Blender glitching. Suggested by Wade Schneider.
A useful extension since the Blender devs can't be bothered to make autosave work (I tried logging a bug and was told that autosave is only supposed to save under very rare circumstances).
Very simple but is so useful, For those who forget to save their projects for hours.
It's useful, would be nice if the warning color could be edited to match with the current theme.
