Yes, that was a point I made.
There are good arguments to be made both for and
against auto-saving of option changes. My message
of a few minutes ago elaborates on this.
Providing for the possibility (choice) of auto-saving
could be a good thing. Providing flexibility in such
a user choice would be even better.
IOW, even just a choice always/never save all options
could be a step forward, but it's not the best possible
solution. Options are not all the same, and users
don't all use the same option the same way.
