Describe the feature

In Sublime this is called "hot exit". In other macOS apps (pages, textedit, maybe others) it's considered Auto Save, where you can create new buffers (tabs), never save them, and when you exit, the app doesn't prompt to create new files, it just saves the exact state of each untitled buffer and brings them back on next start.

This doesn't replace autosave or save on quit, which would then only be triggered for files that have a file path.

This is immensely useful for when you're taking temp notes, starting a file but not ready to save it to the project, using buffers for copy/paste, etc.

In Sublime, it auto-titles the tab based on the first line of text, to help distinguish between all the untitled tabs.

If applicable, add mockups / screenshots to help present your vision of the feature
