Oh, I didn't take a close look at your suggestion before, but let me tell you it won't be added for sure. It's an absolute invasion of privacy and security breach.

For anyone else totally lost I'm assuming it is included then and it isnt a security breach?
Errr... no.
I don't think he really understood what Patchou DID add.
What he wants is:

What I understand is (let's give an example):
-I am Guido. You are X. You have a microphone in your computer. I invite you to an audio conversation and YOU (the OTHER computer) auto-accepts it because I (my computer) has that setting checked in Plus. THIS is a security breach and THIS is what this guy wanted (or that's what he said he wanted, at least). In one of the threads the reason was given: he wanted it to be used for monitoring another computer. Isn't THAT a privacy risk? And it's a security risk when applied with file transfers.
What Patchou added in Plus 3 is what I agree with, for ME to auto-accept the invitations I receive. I'm ok with that, and, in fact, proposed that feature together with many other people months ago.
Everybody got confused here...
