has yet been conducted on the points mentioned above.
I'm not sure what "Testing" should be driven in Gutenberg specifically.
All tests have been actually done in Gutenberg as this is the default
editor.
If we check the code, Auto Drafts are still being executed when they
should. The `(no title supported)` is only relevant when the post is
actually saved, but there is no title support explicitly set at that exact
moment. Currently it will be set as `Auto Draft` generating a faulty
behavior.

> Perhaps, it might be possible to simply use `(no title)`?
@wildworks the problem is that since this is not a dynamic field, this is
only reflecting the current status when set.
It's like `(Auto Draft)`. You could edit this in a million ways and still
it will be saying "(Auto Draft)" until you manually change it.
`(no title)` is not much descriptive in regards of what is happening but
`(Auto Draft)` is actually misbehaving.
So currently this is misbehaving and this patch will add a fix to this. It
could always be reimproved but current situation is unstable.
I still believe this is a commit, and it should be committed in 6.9
