If it had not just "auto-save", but also if it could preserve/restore windows and tabs and saved/unsaved/draft file states across reboots (Windows Update) and crashes (loss of power, Blue Screen), it would be the killer app for me. EmEditor can do this very well, but it's a bit overbloated, so I end up using Notepad a lot, and occasionally losing data.

It can already do that. You have to enable "Session Snapshot" in advanced settings. Also, only tabs from the first launch window is backed up.

Closing this thread since "Session snapshot" can fit your same need.
