I'm not aware of a keyboard shortcut that saves anything. I could be wrong, but I don't believe there is one.

In that case, the prompt is appearing because nothing has been saved. Because the shortcut didn't do anything.

Not true. There is a shortcut and as far as my research goes, it does save the content.

Ctrl+S forces an autosave (which is JS driven) so it doesn't reset the browser's internal "textarea content has changed". This is only reset on form submit.

TinyMCE has a flag that we can use to override its internal dirtiness check when autosaving, see 18048.diff. This fixes the issue for me but probably needs someone more familiar with the JS to make sure it doesn't do anything unintended.

Autosave doesn't save everything. You still need to press Save for the good stuff.
