I think the only really important cases is when buffer-offer-save is
set to t somewhere which is in

  ./ediff-util.el:589:      (setq buffer-offer-save t) ; ask before
killing buffer
  Seems OK.

  ./gnus/message.el:2900:  (setq buffer-offer-save t)
  ./mail/sendmail.el:654:  (setq buffer-offer-save t)
  ./mh-e/mh-folder.el:647:  (setq buffer-offer-save t)
  All those seems OK to me, but I am not sure. I am not using them.

  ./org/org-src.el:629:    (setq buffer-offer-save t)
  Seems OK.
