Possibility to filter $editor_settings in /lib/client-assets.php

[dannydehaan]

Hi,

When working on my dev environment, I don't want Gutenberg autosaves a post every 10 seconds. With a filter I could set the interval to 3600 or something, like this:

add_filter( 'gutenberg_editor_settings', function( $gutenberg_editor_settings ) {
    $gutenberg_editor_settings['autosaveInterval'] = 3600;

    return $gutenberg_editor_settings;
} );

Specific to autosave intervals, there was some conversation on #6257 (comment) about respecting the AUTOSAVE_INTERVAL constant. However, the product goal for Gutenberg is to produce a "Google Docs-like experience" (i.e. your document is always saved), so AUTOSAVE_INTERVAL may no longer be relevant.

When working on my dev environment, I don't want Gutenberg autosaves a post every 10 seconds.

Is there some practical implication of this, or is this simply a matter of personal preference?

Per the discussion on #7400, there's already a method in place to change the editor settings, so I'm going to close this issue.
