Great idea! ... Would this be possible on fast replies as well?

I would add that if this is implemented to please have a feature to turn it off, I can think of many websites that do the same thing and I find it very annoying.

I agree, I back out of a lot of my posts (probably more than half of them) because they are very irrelevent and if I had to reconsider it, I would probably be tempted to actually post them.

But it is a very good idea!

Maybe configure this alert so that it only comes up if there's text in your post box? That way those who don't want it could just delete their text before navigating elsewhere?

Blogger does this as well--why didn't I remember that?
