I actually like the idea of auto-refill. Collecting ingredients isn't that fun (oh I think i need X amount of potions for this battle so i need Y amount of ingredients). I like the idea of gathering specific herbs and hunting monsters for upgrades instead. People who want to 'roleplay' is fine and all, but it's not like the game has a sleep/eating/survival mechanic, so you shouldn't be too concerned about this either. I doubt it makes combat any easier, for those concerned with that. For example If you neglect upgrading potions they will be next to useless in battle, for the harder encounters.
I really don't see any problem. They only refills when you meditate at taverns anyway. I bet there are skills in the Alchemy tree that allows you to refill up to a certain number of potions etc. But in general it just removes the tedious gathering aspect.
