FS Autoload 4.4.0-RC1, what does it do?

After updating my Mini+ to 4.4.0-RC1, in settings there is now "FS Autoload" with options of On or Off.  What does this do?  I can't find any mention of it.  Thanks.

Best Answer by FoxRun3D:

It's similar to how the Mk3S works. On a Mini with a filament sensor, with Autoload turned on it will detect when you insert filament and prompt you for the filament type to initiate the loading process. No need to select Load Filament from the LCD panel.

Concur; while I haven't flashed that RC yet, that's what the git diff of the source commit implies.

Starts the load process when the filament sensor detects filament being inserted - and also appears to wait for the filament to be removed from the filament sensor during filament unload, prompting "Please remove filament from filament sensor."

Shame it's not mentioned in the release notes, afaict.
