So my question about auto check in for those that have used it: does it only get enabled if you check in online for a flight and only work on the return segment ? ie. I do not want it to be enabled for the first segment as I expect the 777 seat fandango.

Not a direct answer to your question, but you should still be able to change your seats even if you're auto checked in - at least, I've been able to do so using the website (but you have to go through the check-in page again, not through the reservation page).
