There are no autocmds that I know of for macro recording.

I also know of no way to get the last-used register, otherwise I'd just suggest a simple mapping.

Also macro recording is, IIRC, disabled in a mapping, so you can't even store it by remapping the macro record functionality.

I think you'll just need to stick with manual editing. If you want a more automated system, I could envision a plugin using a special buffer and a BufWriteCmd autocmd for setting registers, but I don't know if such a plugin exists, and I don't know if it would actually make the process any easier than it is now.
