It would be nice if you could have a separate "space" to store the coins that we use for gambling and a "space" where you keep the coins for the "income" option. You could offer the users a drop down menu to select the "space" for the different options.
I know Freebitco.in can benefit from mistakes like this, so there is no reason why they would invest time into something like this, but it will be a nice feature for the users.
I stopped using auto-bet, because of this and I think some people might have stopped gambling all together because of previous mistakes like this. 
The other failsafe option is to have another account to keep a separate balance for the interest. As long as you don't use it to claim free rolls as well as your main account we don't mind people doing that.
