Automatic full-workspace backups

MCreator has a workspace backup feature, but it only seems to cover a very narrow range of cases concerning corruption of the workspace .mcreator file.

On rare occasions, I have procedure elements become wiped out or lost when saving and exiting the element or exiting the workspace, which can't be reloaded from a .mcreator backup.

Additionally, sometimes I just accidentally delete elements by mistake.

The easiest solution to lost progress due to these problems is if MCreator could create manual or automatic backups of the entire workspace (except the 'run' folder), or preferably just the files that are required.
