Two issues here: (1) whether org-mode should give you visible hints for
any change you make in the agenda buffer and (2) whether this change are
to be automatically saved.

For the first issue, this can be improved by displaying a timestamp when
a new SCHEDULED: or DEADLINE: is added (just like the visible timestamp
we have when pressing S-left/right on a headline: => <2007-09-28 ven>)

For the second issue, I still think saving the modification should not
be automated. It useful to see all the changes you made before saving
them, and maybe you would agree with this once the first issue is fixed?
