:-)  Fair enough, at least it did occur to me that this cuts both ways and 
could be seen as a negative.

If not “regular” then maybe there's something else along the lines of "the 
default entry mode” as with plain {…}.  \default is already taken…  I guess 
there's \standard but I don’t suppose it would fare any better than \regular.

Anyway, we already have some good options on the table.  I guess you can’t 
fault us for not considering all the possibilities, and at least there’s 
agreement that this is a useful feature.
