Many thanks.
I think I prefer automatic initial copyright.
Although perhaps a registration (say after about 20 years) and renewal system wouldn't be too hard a burden, provided it didn't have the excessively strict limits on exactly when renewal was required that appeared in the old US system.
Shame it will never happen.
