Well I think it is hard for anyone to guess what would be reasonable defaults 
for
you specifically, any default is by its nature just targeting an generic
person, which might or might not be a lot like you.

But if you are aware and understand the finer details here then it isn't that
big a job to change it, you should be able to go into the network manager, 
choose your
connection, choose 'identity' (should probably be moved to be under security?) 
and change
the zone for your network to whatever suits you better.

and why can't you do the same if you want it open instead start wide-open and expect from people to secure their system

how long do you think does it take until someone is so audacious and installs mysql and apache with the intention just to develop some webscripts on his workstation *beause* he want only play around with it not imaging that his mysqld is open to the world and not just localhost?

the same applies for *any* other service in /etc/services with a port number above 1024 - ship unsecure defaults and expect users to secure their machines is pervert - that won't happen, sooner or later damage will happen and nobody feels responsible
