Just some thoughts. Put that in the client you have a boolean type set
to false, while in the server it has been changed to true. The user
wants to set it to true.
With autoedit OFF, you have.
a1) user clicks the "edit button"
a2) user sees that the field is true, so he does nothing (or clicks
cancel)

With autoedit ON:
b1) the user clicks to the checkbox to make it "checked"
b2) what shold the buffer update do? Get the updated data from the
server, then process the user input? Or force the user input as the
right data? But what happens if you change the day of a date that
someone else has changed before, changing the month?

Just some problems that autoedit brings with syncro with the server. I
always use autoedit, but have not figured our how to solves this
problems...
