Ok, it can be a regression, but IMHO the behaviour is correct in this way respect allowing to write during rendering.
If layer is modified during rendering, theoretically rendering have to be invalidated. Stopping rendering is always possible with rendering checkbox in the bottom bar => the correct procedure would be:
1) stop rendering
2) save features
3) refresh

or

1) during save => stop rendering
2) save edit
3) refresh

the above would be a new feature that is not strictly necessary because of manual workaround.

can it be considered a low priority issue, and more, can it be considered a fix instead of a regression?

can be it considered a high priority issue and more can be considered a regression or better fix on a not correct behaviour on 2.14?

Luigi, I'm really not sure. I suggest to ask this in the dev list for a wider feeeback.
