Hi chris,

> What is a non-BR/EDR device?
Bluetooth Low Energy devices. My BT mouse for example works with BLE (using 
HOGP ( = HID over GATT) ).

> Is there a user-preference for auto-connect that this might override?
I would go so far and say it establishes what you expect. This change activates 
the autoconnect when pairing a device.


My understanding of this so far is the following:

Devices discovered by advertising (BLE devices) are not to be
autoconnected per default. If a device autoconnects was originally
decided in the service probing. This part has been reworked and the
check for autoconnecting BLE discovered devices got deleted. This change
addresses this issue now in the device pairing function. So when you
pair a BLE device you discovered by advertisement it also sets the
autoconnect flag explicitly. This reflects the original state before the
code change which introduced this.

I hope I could clear this up and not more confusing
