If that's the case, it's a bug. I'll have a look at this tomorrow.
(Hm... and the code should check whether the auto-save file actually
exists, not just `recent-auto-save-p' -- the user may have deleted the
auto-save file manually.)

I think that's too dangerous, really, so I'd rather not. But if others
feel strongly that that should be a feature, I wouldn't oppose it.
