I'm -1 if it means I can't use rpmdevtools with the old behaviour.
I'm not sure what you mean here? Which program that is provided by
rpmdevtools do you think will be broken?
At least spectool and rpmdev-bumpspec support spec files that use rpmautospec.
And I'm pretty sure the rest will just continue working (because the
only one that reads / writes to "Release" and "%changelog" is
rpmdev-bumpspec, which supports both "normal" packages and packages
that use rpmautospec).
