There is another proposal about moving autosave into base and allowing 
to configure array values before iocInit. I think these should be 
separate proposals. Concerning the latter, I am strongly for adding 
some sort of array syntax to db files, so that array fields can be 
configured in db files. This is overdue, and should be easy to design 
and implement.

Concerning autosave, if it gets moved into base maybe it make sense to 
changed it to use db file syntax.
