Prompt to save pipeline in case Compass is closed accidentally

It's a human tendency to forget to continuously save an authored pipeline while constructing it. We might create a large pipeline and forget to save it before closing MongoDB Compass. Similar, to other softwares please add a prompt to Compass in a situation when changes are not saved before closing it.

    This is a very useful feature suggestion. Many users, including myself, have likely experienced the frustration of losing unsaved work on complex pipelines. Implementing a save reminder before closing would greatly enhance the user experience and prevent accidental data loss.

    I regularly lose progress by clicking on another collection and it instantly switches with no warning about the pipeline work I forgot to save

    This prompt should also happens when you switch from Aggregation view to another collection/database, or closing a tab: every time you could lose the current pipeline...
