Right, the autocommand is probably worse, as a matter of fact, exactly this breakage occurred to me last week while running a script. When I (finally) figure out the reason of the failure, I had to place an awful 'if' statement to check for a global variable (which I am not very fond of them) to run the autocommand or not. I've read the docs and I wasn't sure if it was for better to use 'autochdir' or not and because I didn't have enough time to test it, I postponed the transition. So thanks for posting your experiences. Checking for 'autochdir' is easy so I believe is more safe to use, it just requires by the script writers to check for that option.
