A major difference between @clean and @auto (I use @auto-rst) is that the 
external file includes headline text in @auto and *not* in @clean. That's a 
big deal for me and I think should be better documented in the chart of 
differences. Also a reason I don't think @auto can be completely deprecated 
in favor or @clean. BTW, @auto-md doesn't work for me either, not sure if 
that's a bug or a feature.
