There is a separate bug for Ajax page saves (I'm
mobile, it's the weekend)
so I don't know the bug number. But yes it would be the preferred behavior.
With save button only appearing for noJS users.

Regarding the Special:Preferences page, could we consider putting the Save
button at the *top-right* of the box, instead?
There are many users who are used to the modern systems like Gmail - where
no manual "save" is needed, but instead happens automatically when anything
is changed - and are liable to miss the Save button anywhere at the bottom,
especially on longer preference pages.
In the RfC for userpreferences, I'd suggested that "The [Save button] is
always visible/nearby" should be a high-priority goal. (Or, upgrading to an
auto-save system). [1]
Having it at the top of the window would be ideal, and possibly even top
and bottom, like so:
