Ah, sorry, I was talking about the behavior of TeX-arg-document, not
TeX-normal-mode itself. I suppose the users who keep TeX-auto-save nil
pay attention not to type C-c C-n. But if TeX-arg-document calls
TeX-normal-mode inside it, typing C-c C-e document unconditionally
creates "auto" subdirectory even for such users.

I suppose you are assuming that the buffer mydoc.el survives across
emacs sessions by desktop.el or something. That may be another
interesting solution, indeed.
