I agree that an auto-save could be helpful but technically speaking it could be disastrous in the middle of a slash and hack battle. There is no guarantee on when the timer resets.
The Larian game-engine keeps track of story development in story.000 and story.001, which may be the answer to the problem.
The death of the hero should trigger a special event that pops up a story history window from which you may pick a point back in the past to restore your game. Those history points are chosen by the game engine regarding the hero coordinates being inside predefined safe zones and considering the gained achievements as well. Therefore, you would see a list of time stamps {Osiris_Type} with a comment that includes the name of the place and your last achievement there.
I know it can be done but it may not be implemented in RR because it is a fundamental programming change that might consume valuable time for a sooner release.
Cheers.
