What change do you want to make?

Implement suggestions

How do you think the change should be implemented?

A new default behavior

Example code

if (x == 42) { }
if ("" == text) { }
if (obj.getStuff() != undefined) { }

a == b
foo == true
bananas != 1
value == undefined
foo == null

What does the rule currently do for this code?

Reporting an error.

What will the rule do after it's changed?

Suggests changing to strict comparison.

Additional comments

There was an earlier discussion at #4578, and at that time you decided to disable auto-fix for eqeqeq altogether.

Then, for some cases, you did bring it back; for those cases in the documentation, the auto-fix works:

typeof foo == 'undefined'
'hello' != 'world'
0 == 0
true == true

The last time there was a discussion about this, I understand there were no suggestions back then, but it seems that for the other cases, the suggestions would have worked fine.
