Yep, I saw the check box, and I do check it. My thinking was that instead of having to check that box for each request (and we have a fair number of them in our test plans) it would be nice if I could have that be the default behavior, either because it was the default behavior for the HTTP sampler, or because I was able to set on the HTTP request defaults.
