Implement auto-saving mechanism on Design Notes

Problem to solve

Sometimes we start writing a note on a Design and we stop half-way, switch tabs and then lose it... when we get back to that Design and start replying, it would be nice to have the content still there.

This is the behavior we have in comments for Issues and Merge Requests. We leverage localStorage on the users' browsers.

Intended users

Any user of Design Management.

Documentation

Worth adding a note on the documentation of Design Management

What does success look like, and how can we measure that?

  • Better user satisfaction (NPS?)
  • Less complaints about loss of comments (if we have any)
