Okay, I know how to autocard, and I know how to do it by set, but I would like for certain hard-to-read cards (Amonkhet Invocations, textless promos) to not be the one I see when I autocard and neglect to do it. (And of course, also, for other users!) Mostly my interest in this is to help newer players who may not have seen these cards before.
Also, if at all possible, could we have both sides of DFCs (and the entirety of a meld) show up when you autocard?

Card advantage is not the same thing as card draw. Something for 2B cannot be strictly worse than something for BBB or 3BB. If you're taking out Swords to Plowshares for Plummet, you're a fool. Stop doing these things!
The staff has brought some of these issues up already. There is an issue that our current design has the last card that is added to our database is the default one and we don't have a way to set it otherwise.
Our developers are working on the deckbuilder as well as some changes in our card database that should help with the new deckbuilder when it is released. I can't say with any certainty that this will get done at the same time but its been on our list for a while to be able to manually set what card to pull from for card tags.

I have officially moved to MTGNexus. I just wanted to let people know as my response time to salvation decks being bumped is very hit or miss.
Good. What I want is, simply, an autocard that shows in the user's chosen language if possible (defaulting to English for cards not printed in that language).
I can manually do it, which is useful for describing card art and flavor text.
The other thing I think is we should update the mana tags section of the tag FAQ, since c now becomes C, and hybrid mana is {wu} becomes (W/U), etc., and Phyrexian mana is {wp} becomes (W/P), etc. (The other update I can recommend is using the brackets to make mana symbols for 10~20 generic mana, 20 being the highest currently on a non-silver-border card. Sorry, Gleemax and Mox Lotus.), so Aladdin's Lamp would cost {10}
