Why isn't there a Save in Pipelines?

I am coming here to express my frustration. It has been quite a while since I have ventured into Pipelines. I just spent 15 minutes adding all the fields one at a time to the search step and none of them show up in the loop step. I don't want to loose any changes so I am opening all the steps and hoping that moving things around will finally add the fields I selected in the first step so I can pick them in the loop step. Doing this for a while, no fields appearing, I give up and refresh the page. EVERYTHING IS GONE!! Now I start over.

PipeLines : if I cannot trust you to save my work, can I please have some indication you are paying attention!!! What is wrong with a save button?

Going back to cave.

Jim,

The interface changed dramatically in the last month.  Although there was not a Save button, going up and down through the Steps to see what you built was much easier.

I have found inconsistencies with pipelines with multiple steps where you add a field in a higher step, but you don't see it even after you 'refresh schema'. I've come to terms with refreshing schema at least twice before I do anything else.

I also wish there were options for editing an active, in production pipeline with version control. 

I've also seen instances where I add a step and the fields in later steps have been wiped out.

Agreed, we need a save button.  Sometimes I do NOT want it to auto save either!
