Hi Christian,

After talking to Liz, it appears you should have a look at this issue.

The current actual behavior is, that we have a completely user-editable list of
schemes. The default entry is not treated specially in any way: it can be
modified or removed completely. The only constraint is that at least one scheme
remains.

The default entry has the name "Default" - in any language. This name is not
hardcoded in the code. It is present only in the configuration data. As schemes
are referred to by name, these names also act as 'programmatic names'. This
means they can't easily be made localizable directly in the configuration. The
least invasive technical solution would be to choose a language-neutral name for
the default entry. I mentioned some problems with camouflaging the programmatic
name with a language-dependent one above (concerning in particular multi-lingual
installations).

Interestingly the help states that 'the Default scheme cannot be removed', where
"Default" is treated as translatable string ("Das Standardschema kann nicht
gelÃscht werden.") This deviates from the real behavior and has no connection 
to
the locale-independent naming "default". I think "default" is a word that most
people not speaking English (and even some that think they do) don't know at
all, so I think any change to get rid of it in localized versions would be
useful. Pavel's proposal addresses this without requiring changes to the
existing implementation (only configuration data needs to be changed).
