Can somebody please explain to me what controls the content of the history panel for a newly imported image, newly opened in the darkroom? Or, in other words, what factors determine what modules appear in the history stack on such an image before I have started to do anything?

I also want to understand how the ‘property’, (as indicated by the tiny icon shown to the right of each named module in the stack), is set or determined. By ‘property’ I mean the choice of ‘always-on module’, ‘default enabled module’ or ‘<blank>’. The icons for these last two properties are indistinguishable on my system.

The reason I ask is that 1 module’s appearance in a newly imported/opened image grabs my attention: monochrome. Why is that there? And it makes a difference, causing a ‘rash’ of mid-grey pixels to appear in the sky in this particular image. If I ‘reset’ the history to the step before ‘monochrome’ this rash disappears. What is going on here?
