I just stumbled across this today; the relevant commit
https://code.orgmode.org/bzg/org-mode/commit/b4422add3745c26ec3b2e11b8da425844b2e9d3d

I had been wondering for quite some time (about since 5 months :P) why
my Org captures have stopped auto-saving.

Today I started looking into it, and found that commit.

I believe this 1-liner commit is a pretty serious change. Users used
to have they captures safely auto-saved might be in for a surprise. So
just wanted to write this email about it. This commit does not affect
the stable releases of Org so far (9.1). This change is present only
on master as of today.

I'll add a note about this to NEWS on master branch.
