Gentlemen,
   C-x s runs the command save-some-buffers, which is an interactive
   compiled Lisp function in `files.el'.

   It is bound to C-x s.

   (save-some-buffers &optional ARG PRED)

   Save some modified file-visiting buffers.  Asks user about each one.
                                              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
                                              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Not any more.
Try it.
You'll see "(Saved .newsrc-dribble)", even before asking.
