Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdr...@acm.org> added the comment:

I agree that the existing defaults={...} should never have been added to the 
stdlib.  It made sense in the originating application, but should have been 
implemented differently to keep application-specific behavior out of what 
eventually was added to the stdlib.

Will think further about the rest of this when I'm on my own computer and can 
read & play with the patch in a more usable environment.
