It coincides with my idea too, but it might be a very limited set. For example, there may be a good "suggested by upstream" default for LHS of fetch refspecs (e.g. somebody may have 47 topics published but majority of people are expected to follow only his "master" branch), but it is up to the user of that suggestion what the RHS would be.
