Too easy to lose CL descriptions

Project Member Reported by calamity@chromium.org, Jan 24 2017

Issue description

It's currently too easy to lose CL descriptions because of an error occurring in the upload process after you've typed a long description. This is happening 

I propose either:
- Extending the backup system to gerrit (e.g https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/431459)
- Printing the cl description immediately after it's entered so the CL description can be retrieved in the terminal scrollback

Yep, hits me too.
I think printing isn't such a bad idea, actually, but I like your CL too.
