There is one more important difference between Wings
auto-mirror and Blenders 'Alt-D - Mirror' trick: the
fact that the central vertices are locked on the X
axis, meaning you can use proportional editing etc.
without screweing up the vertices down the middle. In
Blender, you have to go back and align those vertices
along the X axis before merging and removing doubles.

Auto-mirror would be very nice indeed, and more
obvious too.
