"Auto" Traction?

In the new Beta (1.4.0.6) there is a new option for resizable wheel traction : Auto.
What does this do exactly?

    It just sets the traction to 100% for forward and sideways and hides the slider. The real purpose is to simplify the part properties and not make it so overwhelming at first glance.

    @kikasshes Maybe because the traction is fixed to certain amount?

    Whatever it is, I don't use it on my planes (Too much forward traction)

    @ChunderDownUndeR I think the Auto setting has about the same traction on both the runway and on the grass. But it has overall slightly less traction than 150% traction.

    @Tully2001 Hmm maybe. Is it good? I haven't tried it.
