AUTOSAVE on (accidentally) clicking the restart button (or better yet, remove restart button entirely)

Please (in similar way as autosave before spaceship flight) force an AUTOSAVE on accidentally clicking the restart button.
Why: I know there's a confirmation box, but that safety feature is somewhat nullified by needing to press E to confirm on the load game screen as well: "Load game + hotkey E" quickly loads the last savegame, while "misclick Restart + hotkey E" restarts a new game without saving the current one.
Better yet: completely remove the restart button. Why: how many people need a prominent restart button in a 100-hour long game. When is the last time YOU used it, if ever? It's usache is VERY niche and even then, getting a restart with any set of map settings is easy to do with the "copy map exchange string" function in the "load game" menu.
