Definitely agreed with that - the feature doesnt make sense without that kind 
of automatic default. Either it _can_ handle to be the default just fine and 
give us advantages on a broad basis, or if not then it's not worth merging.

Nevertheless allowing an opt-out on a finegrained basis would still be nice in 
general. The default is powerful enough of a force in itself - a finegrained 
opt-out does not hurt that advantage, it only improves utility.

Thanks,
