Auto keyframe should be OFF! By default it should be off!
The autokeyframe by default on things loke opacity has been a source of many a frustrations for me.
I set an opacity value. Then later I change it. Play it back and I wonder why it isn't set where I wanted. So I open it up an goddammit the autokeyframe was on by default so to get rid of it I push the stop watch and that warning is thrown right at my face. I never wanted the keyframes in the first place so why did you assume I would, adobe?!
This problem would not be nearly as aggravating if the behavior of keyframes was consistent. Not like now, when autokeyframe is on by default for some values but not others. Pick one and stick to it.

Yep, annoyed by this every time when changing volume on audio clips. Let us change this setting someplace! I can't really think of a time I want keyframing to be on by default.

Same goed for "level" audio level that is, it's always on, please OFF for default!

Another +1 to get rid of this default 'keyframing on'.
Go the same way as After Effects. Static by default. If I want a value keyframed, I'll switch animation on!

Please fix this! As another user pointed out, this behavior causes a lot of confusion amongst students. To have some attributes arbitrarily auto-keyframed while others aren't is incredibly unintuitive.

ALL autokeyframes should be OFF. Also for audiolevel and ALL other instances.

These auto Keyframes are driving me nuts! I'm switching to edit this project in RESOLVE. I write automation when I want to, please let me turn it on myself. How in the world are you supposed to dial in a setting without hearing the audio first, I don't want to write keyframes of me sweeping an EQ band to find the trouble frequency.
Terrible idea.

YES, every time I adjust volume or opacity which is quite often, you have to click the **** stopwatch.. you should only click it when you want to make keyframes.

Oh jeez I'm "glad" this is a thing, I was starting to go crazy thinking it was only me!
It's driving me insane, on by default makes NO SENSE AT ALL -

Auto-bezier by default in Premiere and in AE is actually the worst thing ever. Literally I've never once wanted to use it, so why is it defaulted switch to auto-bezier when you create keyframes?
Same with the keyframe on Opacity.. WHY IS IT THE DEFAULT TO HAVE A KEYFRAME???

Remember folks, now that Adobe has switched to an expensive RENTAL model, it will enable them to deliver bug fixes and enhancements in a timely manner!

May 2018. Still under "Review". So this is what Adobe calls "Development"? I'm glad Adobe isn't into health care where human lives are dependent from decisions and actions. I'm tired of this lazyness since nearly two decades. Ignorance is bliss.

Please fix this! Its a pretty annoying feature. Professionals at this point know how to operate keyframes and dont need any sort of hand-holding. At least make this an option to turn off.
