Autobackup report: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103234

Session snapshot on shutdown:
The idea is you cannot tell if the shutdown is just a regular shutdown or emergency \
shutdown (and in this case it would be better to do everything automatically). So the \
safer assumption is -- do everything automatically _always_. Kate could do this by \
closing all not modified files (by Kate, or by any externall app) and for the rest \
                making snapshots:
* original content (what is on the disk)
* content after open/last save
* the current content from the editor

No questions asked, Kate quits. On the next run however Kate restores those snapshot \
and then asks what to do.

So the idea is not to omit questions and just blindly go with one option (because it \
could be the case the auto-answer is not good) but to postpone all questions when the \
user has time to answer those questions.

With autobackup feature it would be easier to do, since autobackup requires crash \
recovery, so partially this is the same design.
