This is very good practice. I do exactly the same thing. You can set up your printing not to print the ERC directive markers. It provides a very robust check for unintentionally unconnected pins. I also keep the autojunction turned on, but that does mean that I have to be careful not to run wires across valid connection nodes.

It's also a good idea to set the ERC a bit tighter. I marked all unconnected pins as a warning, except for the power pin, witch is an error. On intentionally left open pins, I place a "no erc mark" on it. Keystrokes p-i-n, witch is easy to remember because you'll place them on a pin. I have found quite a lot of schematic errors this way. This would have found your unconnected passive pin of the pullup. Do you have other things connected to the power port witch should be connected to the pull up? If no, this should definitly be marked as an error.
