How to autosave ipython laptop

Question

Does anyone know if there is an option (or a proposed hack) for IPython laptops to automatically save before running a cell?

Many times I worked on something without saving for quite some time, then I execute a dumb command that prints so much crap on the console that my browser becomes unresponsive, which leads to the fact that I lose all my work.

Temporary autosave can also do the trick.
