I agree that the current solution is slightly obscure, but I'm having a hard time seing a solution that doesn't end up adding clutter and potential confusion to the application.
A potential solution could be to add an "Auto close options"-button to these dialogs. That button would open a window with auto close options for that particular window. This dialog could also be replicated under settings. However, I'm not convinced that adding a permanent button for something you'd need once a year is such a good idea.
Hmm... Or here's a wild idea: We introduce the concept of "Smart Close(tm)". Each suitable dialog gets a Smart Close-checkbox. When checked, the dialog will auto close with options that have sensible defaults and can be configured in the settings dialog. When unchecked the dialog will remain open.
