TinyMCE onContentSave event is fired on componentWillUnmount

See original GitHub issue

What is the current behavior? When the tinymce component is unmounted, a save event is fired causing unexpected behavior. This caused us a headache in production for our app. Took a while to track down.

codesandbox.io don’t know why its getting a network error, you can close it and ignore then it works fine.

What is the expected behavior? Editor should not save when it is unmounted unless explicitly told to by some property

Which versions of TinyMCE, and which browser / OS are affected by this issue? Did this work in previous versions of TinyMCE or tinymce-react? @tinymce/tinymce-react @3.5.0 This is the only version ive used.

FWIW I’ve been able to reproduce the issue with multiple versions of TinyMCE and tinymce-react.

As a workaround, I am currently wrapping the tinymce-reactcomponent in a HOC and unbinding the savecontent event listener from the editor when the component is unmounted.
