Call me old fashioned, but I would absolutely like to see autocorrect turned off in many contexts. I much prefer to read messages with 30% more transparent errors rather than any increase in opaque errors. I can tell what someone meant if I see "elephent in the room", but not "element in the room" (not an actual example, autocorrect would likely get that one right).
