Not new in this beta, but searching this thread it doesn't look like this has been posted yet. A setting for automatic login in System Preferences > Security & Privacy.

That's not new – by any definition. This picture is from Mac OS X Tiger, released 10 years ago (would also hazard a guess this wasn't a new feature in Tiger either):

Whoa, I didn't know that (I skipped Yosemite when it comes to day-to-day use). I wonder why they took it out...
Good question. Here it is in Mavericks:

Maybe it was taken out to be stuck back in with 10.11?

Edit: Its absence from Yosemite was because FileVault is turned on (see posts below). I put a setting that's been there since Tiger in OS X 10.11 All the Little Things :oops:

Well, not present in Yosemite... but good find!
It's in the Users & Groups panel in Yosemite.

I don't know what version of Yosemite you are running but the version everyone runs has the option in the same exact place where it was 10 years ago. (1st screenshot, "Automatische Anmeldung deaktivieren", German localization).

The same option in a different format is present in Users & Groups as well (as Planey28 pointed out, 2nd screenshot, "Automatische Anmeldung").

It's not in the panel for me, however I'm thinking this might be because FileVault is turned on at a guess.

Not new, in Yosemite as well.

Sorry, not to sound rude. This just made me chuckle a little.

1) Claim that a new feature in DP5 isn't actually new, when it actually is.
2) Claim that a feature that's been in OS X for 10 years is new.

Just slightly ironic. :D

1. It's not new (see Yosemite screenshot):

2. Ok, I was a little ashamed about that (see my edit above) :)
