The proper way to fix this is to not require that a file be saved at all
prior to a render starting (rather than have some auto-save feature that
can be turned on and forgotten about). This is in fact how v3.0 worked, which
used a different editor (which stored the edit data as a flat memory structure;
this was very inefficient but handy for doing a render from memory). It was
never necessary to save a file before rendering.

This is not easily possible with codemax, since it stores the file as a linked
list. This is not an impossible problem to get around and I will probably do it
one day. But not for 3.5 release.
