Comment 4 for bug 113279

Apparently the issue originates from the init script naming the same autosave file over and over again.

Would it not be more elegant to change the init script so that it either
- loads the previous autosave file so that the previous session is continued (and autosaved into the same file)
or
- comes up with another autosave file name if the given one is already taken (much like your patch does, but outside sobby)?

I am not sure whether this adequately addresses your concerns, but it seems to me that either would be a simpler solution.
