SharePoint 2013 publishing pages autosave in IE (doesn't happen in Firefox or Chrome)

When I edit a publishing page on a 2013 publishing portal site in IE 11 and instead of clicking save I navigate to another page, the page being edited gets automatically saved with the edits I made. There is no dialog popup asking if I want to navigate away and lose my changes which is what other sites tend to do.

If I do the exact same thing in Firefox or Chrome, the changes don't get saved and there is no dialog warning letting me know that I will lose my changes if I leave the page there either.

This seems a pretty illogical user interface design to me. Firstly there should be consistency of behaviour across the major browsers. Secondly the user should be given a warning and an option to save the changes or discard them rather than an auto-save. I could live with the auto-save if it was consistent across all browsers.

Is there a way to disable the auto-save?
