I agree it's more plausible in the Roadster but most Roadster owners charge with a UMC or HPC so less of an issue. Some do charge with the 120V cable though. If it's something that could potentially be a problem, could always have someone check on the car. Many people ask neighbors or relatives to swing by their house when they go on really long vacations to make sure no one has smashed a window...etc. Peoeple could do the same of they have early Roadsters and are really worried about it. An additional safety measure for those really concerned would be to simply charge in standard mode during vacation. You'd use less energy and not technically as good for the battery but if the power going out or a circuit tripping is a major concern then you'd start with a much higher SOC.
I was more referring to the Model S and X since it seems the main purpose of this guy's smear was to damage Tesla as a company and maybe hurt future sales. Since the Model S will have even less of an issue as they state in the new blog, is really isn't an issue.
