Wait!! Do you mean Autopromoted groups are recalculated on each request?
Yes, that's the point.
If the above works, that would be a way to fix the long-awaited bug 4995 (block from uploading). Remove upload from user group and autopromote giving upload right to any user not on the upload-blocked group.
However, I don't see a way to have "autopromote if not in group X" work right now. It seems like the only conditions are emailconfirmed, edit count, and age.
There is an INGROUPS condition too. Check out http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgAutopromote
