RESTORE CONTROLFILE from '/somedisk/ctrlfile.bak';

I have done that when testing restores from backups and it works. I must
also make sure I am backing up my spfile and can restore it as well so
basically I still don't understand the difference between the above
statement and RESTORE CONTROLFILE from AUTOBACKUP;

If the controlfile has been backed up with autobackup, you don't need
to know which file to ask for.  Maybe not a huge issue, but a timesaver
when you need to restore, and just extra insurance.
