Looks good except for some improper English in the commit message. s/its/it's/ and s/their/there/.

There's a few other tests also not conditionally checking for _lazySave. I guess we're just lucky and don't have errors elsewhere. If you would be so kind to do a follow-up patch to address these other instances, it would be appreciated. I may even favor a "destructor" API on tracker. If you don't want to do it, no worries.

I looked a most of those. I think they're mostly okay, though, because they call saveChangedIDs immediately beforehand. saveChangedIDs actually creates the timer.
