I am thinking something akin to the Warcraft 3 look, but maybe even more noticeable.
It seems like both Starcraft 2 and Dota 2 both suffer from this old principle that Warcraft 3 got right.
In Starcraft 2, some people (including myself) had no idea that some skills are auto-castable because the icon had no indication of this.
In Dota 2, there IS a very very very light colored box around the icon, but it's extremely hard to see unless you're looking for it
In my opinion, there should be a dotted line frame around skills that are autocastable, and an animated effect should trace around the edges of the icon when auto-casting is activated.
