I agree that opt in is much preferred. I use more than a few addons that are no longer updated/supported, but still work. (Some just work and others I've fixed so they work again.) I'm unsure how autosaving might impact them or my client's performance. Sure, I could edit all the old addons with "## DisabledSavedVariablesAutoSaving: 1", but that wouldn't be necessary if the system was opt in.
Using the example Dan posted, implement "## EnabledSavedVariablesAutoSaving: 1" to opt in instead.
I also like the dirty flag suggestion. What would really be nice is if specific keys could be marked dirty and only those keys saved during an autosave cycle. However, I have no idea if it's possible to write to SavedVars in part or if it must be written whole every single time.
