I have the impression it's already there: if you edit your code directly in the Org buffer, without opening an indirect buffer, the only thing you have to do is: 1. save (optional, as you say) 2. tangle via C-c C-v (C-)t. You can even advice the tangle function to do the save for you... Another option is the opposite: edit in your tangled file, and untangle when you feel it's the right time.
