Two Essential Changes for Easy Classroom Use

A)  I don't know how many times my students have lost their work because Scratch doesn't ask if you want to save when you open a new project or quit.  The reminder is not enough, you should be explicitly asked if you want to save.

B)  Especially as projects get larger and more complicated, and for showing classes lots of scripts at once, it would be really, really nice if the size of the script window was adjustable.  I could make it full screen so students could see all the scripts at once.

Both of those enhancements would be great!  My understanding is that the Mac version already warns you if you try to quit an unsaved project.

Yeah i worked REALLY hard on a project and closed scratch without saving. The reminder would help!
