documents from within a signal handler, but instead rely on frequent 
auto-save and roll back to the last saved version after a crash.)

Not disagreeing, but this would increase the fraction of the
time during which Writer, at least, ignores keystrokes.  If
you are looking at the screen when this happens, you just
wait for the autosave to finish and then carry on; if you
are looking at something else, you are faced later--for some
walue of "later"--with the challenge of trying to
reconstruct what you were thinking.
