Anyone can screw-up by scribbling unsave code, which trashes data,
can't they. ;-)
He shoud have included to run the hooks the hooks which
check before killing a buffer.
Which is mentioned in the fine manual about 'kill-buffer'.
The scratch-buffer isn't protected like a 'normal' buffer anyway.
A well, the guy merely dislikes the name *scratch* and has a untitled
fetisch so why bother any further.
