All true. Still, I didn't realize how annoying the new behavior would be until I started using it. Formerly, when I typed C-x C-s I would typically get a little message in the echo area that I could ignore. Now the extra length often causes the message to take more than one line, which causes the lowest mode line to do a little dance to get out of the way so that the echo area can temporarily take two lines, and this is quite irritating.
So, having tried it, I would rather not see these character counts and would rather have the default be the way things were.
