Batch publish mode?

I'm pretty paranoid, too. The thing about publishing is that if you always save first then publish, no matter how badly the publishing goes, the only thing you can lose is the actual publishing time. It's not like something going wrong while you are saving, and you can lose your project back to the last incremental backup.

I frequently publish two at a time, or publish one while I am loading the next, and haven't had problems. If I did, I'd delete the published file, and re-publish - no bigger deal than if it goes bad while publishing one by itself.
