Extensions fail to receive submit_new_entry(_x) calls - Quick Save returns prematurely
Development and Programming
I believe that the Quick Save return call should be repositioned to allow for the submit_new_entry(_x) hooks to be honoured. At present any extension waiting for such a hook will never receive it is the user consistently prefers quick save (which sounds quicker, don’t it?)
I have an extension which is expecting to update my own tables with the (newly generated) entry_id.
I’m not alone in being caught up by this “misfeature”: reference: http://ellislab.com/forums/viewthread/70754/
Hope this can be addressed in a patch (?) Currently running 1.6.4

I agree this is a bug.
As it stands extensions that need to write any data cannot be made compatible with the Quick Save feature. I was looking into tweaking this so that Quick Save could work but it returns from the code before any usable hook.
