Thanks for splitting this out. The default setting is definitely orthogonal to allowing the config.

I've been running with this default for several years now (using the patch I showed in the earlier thread you linked). It _does_ occasionally annoy me, but I think overall it's an improvement. So it seems like a good thing to try, and we can see how people respond as they try it out.
