Auto-Save disable or Undo

It would be nice to disable the auto-save feature or at least have an undo.  The issue is 2 fold.

1. It makes the process of updating much longer. For instance, when updating the settings section in an email. After clicking operational email it saves, then clicking include webpage link it saves, after updating the email address it saves, after updating send name it saves. Thus, making a 5 second task 45+ seconds. 

2. The real issue arises when updating emails, forms etc. Recently our collateral designer created an email. He unknowingly had two windows open to the same email. After completing the email in one window, it saved. Later, he was going through his open windows and came across the second window he had opened to the previously completed email. The blank email then auto saved when he clicked on it. His completed email was over written by the blank email. Since, the email had never been approved all work was lost.

I would like to see a manual save option as well. Auto Save is not always reliable.

Also I'd like to emphasize how awesome it would be to have an Undo in Smart Lists and Flows, although the ability to disable auto-save takes priority in my mind.

Auto-save disable is an interesting idea... seems like it might be easier to add from a technical standpoint. But then again I have no idea what I'm talking about.

Can't say how important it is to have an "undo" buttton. Please incorporate this.   It's just too easy to accidentally delete something and then it's gone.

I've almost had the same thing occur to me as well.  After updating the asset in the designer and closing it, I later came across another designer window that was open and in a previous state of revision.  I quickly closed the window and fortunately the incomplete version of the revision was not saved, but it's frequently hard to be certain about that if the changes are subtle.  Perhaps an alternative solution to this would be to only allow one open designer window on the same asset.

This is a no-brainer considering changes are auto-saved. Please implement this asap - would be greatly appreciated.

The more people we have working in Marketo, the more "oops" moments we're encountering. Undo + audit trail + versioning (or any combination of those) will be hugely useful for our team.

There is a HUGE need for Undo. Please put this on the product roadmap, it's very much needed.

Like the auto-save
Would love an undo and looking forward to the audit trail.
