I think that is a bad idea.  To me that's analogous to a database committing 
all the changes in the current transaction because the connection was 
suddenly dropped.  It is usually possible to make the same changes again, an 
usually difficult in impossible to revert changes once they are written to 
disk.

Of course, as they say, "Proof by analogy is a lie," so just take the above an 
my off-the-cuff opinion.
