It's certainly something I've only ever fallen foul of, but I speak as an emacs user so am not really in the target user group.
I've definitely run into a bit of confusion with this as well in the distant past. I'm a vim user, but used to prefer emacs bindings in the shell, so that autodetection definitely bit me briefly before I made my choice of bindings explicit.
Since then, I *have* switched to using the vi bindings. But, I certainly don't rely on the autoselection.
