[wp-hackers] Handling Custom Meta Boxes

I'm curious how most plugin developers handle saving settings from
custom post meta_boxes. I've always handled this by adding an action to
save the result on 'save_post' and only updating if DOING_AUTOSAVE
wasn't defined. The problem with doing this, is that the save_post
action is also called when a scheduled item is moved to published. If
this happens, the posted values from the meta_box isn't available and I
can't alway use isset since that means I can never use checkboxes for input.
Suggestions?
Thank you.
