Right now desktop autosave is disabled by default and, when enabled,
uses a regular timer.
Proposal: use idle timer instead and default `desktop-auto-save-timeout'
to `auto-save-timeout' (i.e., enable by default).
Objections?
PS. another pending change about to be committed is restoring
`buffer-display-time' for the benefit of `clean-buffer-list'.

God had a deadline, so He wrote it all in Lisp.

thanks!
I think that patch is an overkill, my proposal is simpler.
