Hm... I think, but this pure conjecture at this stage, that it is because we 
don't want to autosave non-native files in their non-native format.

Getting the connection set is easy enough, I've added that to setCurrentImage, 
which gets called from the filters. I've also tested a bit and found that 
autosaving now seems to work correctly, with one slight problem: krita doesn't 
automatically recognize .autosave files as native format. But apart from that, 
it all works now. I'll commit for you.

Btw -- if you mail me your full name, I can add you to the about dialog :-)
