Re: [org-save-all-org-buffers] Saving is not reliable?

[Mikhail Skorzhisnkii <mskorzhinskiy@eml.cc>]

I found the bug. The bug was mostly my own creation. There was a 
small (but very destructive) bug in doom emacs distribution. Fixed 
that bug and sent them a pull requested: 
https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs/pull/4424

Basically I made a small snippet for agenda that makes side window 
of agenda staticly sized, really small and includes only very 
small portion of context related to agenda entry. And to correctly 
possition it in frame, I've used wonderful doom emacs popup 
syntax:

  (set-popup-rule! "^*org-agenda-side\*"
    :side 'top
    :size 0.15
    :autosave t
    :quit t)

Turns out :autosave ignores indirect buffers and sets 
buffer-modified-p state to nil. Hope this is the end of my quest, 
My previous solution was also very clunky.
