Assuming that, the best way to start the discussion is to do as you've done, and begin a thread on ubuntu-devel-discuss. If this is a major issue, it should get a lot of replies and discussion. If no clear consensus occurs to cause a core developer to change the default, and you still believe that it's the right decision, the next step would be to bring it before the Technical Board. They would then make a decision about the default, and that would be that. If the TB doesn't rule the way you like, then your final appeal would be directly to the SABDFL--though in practice, since he is a member of the TB, he would have already expressed his preference.
