 You can save the current document when the editor's focus goes out.
 Every pop-up, menu dialogs, or anything else that can make the editor lose the focus,
 will make the current document to be saved.
 
 
+Untitled Document Save

I'd suggest moving it behind the "Backup copy" section so the order is identical to the order of tabs in settings.

+
+Goal of this mode is to automatically persist the contents of newly-created editor
+tab, so user could just spawn it, add some text and close Geany in 1 click without
+having to explicitly save current work through the Save As dialog.
+Tab will re-appear on next Geany launch with all its contents restored.
+
+Geany manages and cleans up an underlying storage files automatically.

Beware, I'm not a native speaker, but I'd rephrase this section this way:

Unlike Instant Save, which treats untitled documents as temporary files that are automatically deleted, untitled documents in this mode behave more like ordinary files that are stored permanently. Users do not have to worry about saving or restoring such files by themselves - all untitled documents are auto-saved at regular intervals and restored on Geany start or when opening/closing projects.

By default, files backing untitled documents in this mode are stored under the Geany configuration directory.

Does this sound good to you?
