Auto-save in Core Ajax Field?

Would it be possible to trigger the AJAX commit onBlur rather than a form submit?

I had a vendor that was upset when he tried to copy from one AJAX field to another; he just clicked from one to the other to paste, and lost a lengthy paragraph because he didn't click Update first before clicking to the next AJAX field.

phpMyAdmin does this when viewing a table; you can edit a cell in-line, and it saves just by clicking outside the cell.

If it can technically be done, the plugin settings could have an "Enable Auto-save" setting.

Just an idea based on real world experience.

There are no plans to add such functionality. It wouldn't work well with anything other than textarea or text fields. The jQuery is bound in the below file which you could add triggering of form submit on blur as needed.

Your binding would need to be done on cbajaxfield.edit.success otherwise the edit html won't be available to bind to yet.
