"Spacebar/second fire button as autofire" was a default option that the
original WinSTon code base already had and Hatari ported that.
Mine was an addition and I think there was a discussion not to
activate officially.
My personal choice would be to offer it is as an option, either
autofire or jump on the second joystick button.
It should be working fine except for the given bug and the missing UI
options.
Best regards,
Matthias
