This has been added to IMP 5 docs. (Saving drafts to the VFS backend 
was never backported to IMP 4.3, so this doesn't appear there).

Updating the ticket to focus on documenting the functionality and 
updating the description of use_vfs.

I disagree.  That code *never* worked for me, and definitely won't
work if IMP is not the auth handler, if a custom login page is used,
if maintenace tasks are run, etc.
In other words, having a half-assed solution that requires no 
configuration but works terribly unreliably is absolutely no 
replacement for having a solution that works (lingering bugs aside) 
even though it requires additional configuration/resources.

I think we should have kept the old timeout code for the case that
vfs is not available, but we should at least document that vfs is
required for that feature now.

I just noticed that saving drafts when a session times out only works 
if use_vfs is enabled. But this is turned off by default and the 
configuration description only mentions attachments.
