I like the current logic, too.  It is possible to write a Sieve rule that
redirects messages with "Auto-Submitted:" (not containing "no"), should
that really be desired.  Should anybody suggest to to do automatically,
please add an option to disable that behaviour in your suggestion.

Yes. I suggest to add this right after the section about the envelope
sender:

  The envelope recipient(s) of the notification message SHOULD be set to
  the address(es) specified in the URI (including any URI headers where
  the hname is "to" or "cc")

Additionally, change:

  The "To:" header field SHOULD be set to the address(es) specified in
  the URI (including any URI headers where the hname is "to").
