Description

This PR addresses several usability issues highlighted in #906 to improve user experience and prevent accidental data loss. It focuses on UX reliability and reducing user frustration.

Issues & Sub-issues addressed:

3.1 — Tab Switching = Lost Changes
Switching between tabs on a resource configuration currently causes unsaved changes to be lost if the user hasn’t clicked “Save” first.
3.2 — Leave Warning
No warning is shown when navigating away or closing the browser with unsaved changes.
4.4 — Does Not Save Amount of Entries
The “entries per page” setting is not remembered and resets after every page refresh.

How to test?
