[Bug]: Messages lost when session expired whilst sending a message

[michnovka]

What happened?

I opened an issue and it was dismissed into discussion, but it IS A BUG. What danny commented when dismissing it into discussion is not related to the issue. Therefore I am reopening and request it not be closed unless you all agree this wont be fixed and the bug is there to stay with us. But please do not just close it with giving a "solution" which is not for the issue.

** Unrelated to Save drafts locally option in settings **

Today it happened to me, that likely my session expired as I was typing my query. I hit send button, and to my frustration, I get redirected to login page and my whole message is lost.

I would suggest that if this happens, you either

1. save message in localstorage and restore it after login
2. do not log user out, simply show a modal that they are logged out, so they can copy the message before relogin

Simply losing the message with no way to recover is inconvenient
