I've found times where a default layout would have been useful, but on the other hand I've been bitten more than once by a default layout (from the sysinstall [A]utomatic partitioner) that didn't set up a big enough /tmp for my needs.

You're also assuming that the automatic partitioner would allocate the entire disk...
There are other issues, too; /usr/ports and /usr/src, /usr/obj, databases and logs and spools in /var, the list goes on.
