I'd object to that, autocommands are executed after ftplugins and would
overwrite user settings (unless the user creates an au to change it).

So a user who wants a different textwidth would have to riddle the vimrc
with autocommands or place them in a plugin/ file.

These two would be handy by default, imho, but with the addition of
a new default for &backupdir and &undodir:

    set backupdir=~/tmp,~/.vim/backup,/tmp/vim-backup
    set undodir=~/tmp,~/.vim/undo,/tmp/vim-undo

Or similar - as long as it doesn't include the pwd by default anymore,
since that is causing a lot of confusion with new users.

The same would be nice for the default &dir, which also puts the
swapfiles into the pwd instead of somewhere where it doesn't annoy the
user.
