I was just about to start implementing something similar in a webapp where the user’s data is being stored in a session and I need to throw this exact prompt before they leave the page. Well done.

Say you go to edit a post and change your mind: currently it’d alert you, but if it checked for modification first, it’d be less obtrusive. I think it’d be nice if it gave focus to the modified textarea, too.

If this was modified to work with Greasemonkey, you could deploy it for all sites you visit instead of waiting on site admins or browsers to implement it.
