OK, I tried that for Dired only.

I spoke too soon earlier. The autorevert thing makes the
cursor move around like crazy all the time in the
buffer you are editing!

No, it is enough that the revert thing happens when a
Dired buffer is selected (or Buffer-menu buffer for
that matter) - even within Dired, autorevert in the
middle of something else isn't desirable.
