Surveys: Editing a survey question for a long time makes it disappear when saving

[ziggabyte]

Description

When you create a survey, sometimes you need to spend some time to create or edit the survey questions - they might need a lot of context, or precise instructions to get the most precise responses.

Currently when you do spend some time creating a survey question, and then click outside to save it, the text content you worked so hard on, disappears. If you are instead editing an existing survey question, it gets reset back to its old content. Frustrating!

Steps to reproduce

1. Go to a project and create a survey from the "Create" button in the top right corner
2. Add a question of any sort
3. Spend a long time (reports from organisers estimates it happens when they spend more than 1 minute in writing) writing the question
4. Click outside the "card" to save the question
5. Repeat step 3-5 but with editing an existing question, instead of having created a new one.

Expected Behaviour

Clicking outside to save, saves the new text content of the survey question

Actual Behaviour

Clicking outside to save resets the text field to its initial state, and this is what gets saved to the survey question

The only reason I can think of (which does not mean it's the only possible solution) is that the in-memory cache that we keep in redux "expires" and triggers a reload or something. That would happen after 5 minutes, I believe. If that's the offender, changing shouldLoad() to use a shorter TTL could make this bug easier to reproduce.

By setting the DEFAULT_TTL to a shorter value as you suggested @richardolsson I've managed to recreate this bug.

I am unsure on how to solve this bug though.

Im looking into solving this, either component by component or for the parent component.
