    Is it possible to change the default behaviour connecting devices?
    I would very much like to disable autoconnect.

    All discoverable devices are autoconnected, and everytime I insert a CD, USB disk, my iPod, the devices are "stolen" by the Windows guest. I have to disconnect the devices manually in the Parallels menu.

    If it's not possible to turn autoconnect off, would you pleas consider implementing this option?

    I could be wrong, but I tried turing off autoconnect for USB (using the VM editor) and I no longer got autodisconnect as well. While I would like to be able to say this device belongs in the VM, it is very important that the device go away automatically when it is removed. I was unable to uncheck the device using the menu because I got the device in use message. This was on beta 6 (NOT RC1).
