I suggest that we go with the enumerator name 'Default', as the name of the
enum is Mode, so it would be easily understood that this is something that
comes out of the box.
(Those interested in how or what it matches will look at the docs of this enum
anyway. I find this to be a conventional and non-surprising nomenclature).
