Title:
cache not only entry text but also title/icon of interrupted posts

Area:
entries

Summary:
When an entry has been unfinished and not posted, DW currently remembers the entry text itself and you can restore it, but the subject line does not restore, nor does the icon. It would be nice if those fields were also cached.

Description:
I realize some sort of proper draft saving option is planned anyway (which is great), but I think it would be still useful if DW remembered all fields of the entry if you restore it, not just the main text field.

It would be especially neat if it remembered the subject of your interrupted entry and the javascript popup could then ask not only "restore from saved daft?" but tell you what entry it remembers as most recent and wants to restore, before you decide to restore or not, saving the effort to delete the field again, if it wasn't what you hoped to restore after all.

Title:
bulk changes to entry security page

Area:
entries

Summary:
a) There doesn't seem to be an easily visible link to http://www.dreamwidth.org/editprivacy.bml; b) it might be useful to allow mass privacy changing by tag or similar feature

Description:
a) As stated, http://www.dreamwidth.org/editprivacy.bml is not an easy page to locate. On LJ, it is linked in the header of the Edit Entries page http://www.livejournal.com/editjournal.bml but not on the equivalent here: http://www.dreamwidth.org/editjournal. It would probably also be useful to list it on the Site Map.

b) Currently it is only possible to mass change security by date of posting; I would find it very useful to be able to do so by tag as well. I periodically set all my older posts to friends/access-only, but I also have a set of posts marked "public" which I don't want locked, and therefore have to go back and manually change the security on. I'm sure there are other reasons why the feature would be useful to people, as well. I can't think of any obvious drawbacks, unless it is super-complicated coding or something.
