[Apologies if this goes to the list twice; I sent it out the first
time from the wrong address, so I think the list software will block
that copy.]

I find it invaluable, as it tells me in real time exactly how close I
can bring my trace to things it's not supposed to touch.  I like to
pack things quite tightly.  Without auto-enforce, I'd be constantly
running the DRC checker and re-drawing traces.  It seems like it would
be quite tedious.
