The biggest beef I have regarding the automated workers is the fact that quite often they would come around and chop down the trees that I had just finished planting for the shields. That's the reason why I've been insisting on managing most of them manually so far. Today it occured to me that the solution to this problem was very obvious. All I have to do is add a mining bonus to my Forests (logging) and any worker on Shift-A will never chop it down again. Theoretically anyway.
I don't know how the AI will take this, but then I don't really care, as long as I no longer have to babysit a gazillion captured workers.
