and this one doesn't make sense:
if we could tell beforehand what the default was because then we

Of the options I've seen, I agree that this is the best.
In principle, I think default ought to be separate: Saying "default"
means "don't do anything special", whereas saying "Justified" ought to
mean, "Make it justified, no matter what". (Imagine you have a child
doc, and it might be included in different master docs with different
defaults.) In fact, that's not how LyX handles things at present. If you
check "Justified" and that happens to be the default, then it's the same
as checking "Default". But this is a different bug, I think, viz:
void Text::setParagraph(Cursor & cur,
Spacing const & spacing, LyXAlignment align,
docstring const & labelwidthstring, bool noindent)
{
BOOST_ASSERT(cur.text());
// make sure that the depth behind the selection are restored, too
pit_type undopit = undoSpan(cur.selEnd().pit());
recUndo(cur, cur.selBegin().pit(), undopit - 1);
for (pit_type pit = cur.selBegin().pit(), end = cur.selEnd().pit();
pit <= end; ++pit) {
Paragraph & par = pars_[pit];
ParagraphParameters & params = par.params();
params.spacing(spacing);
// does the layout allow the new alignment?
Layout_ptr const & layout = par.layout();
if (align == LYX_ALIGN_LAYOUT)
align = layout->align;
if (align & layout->alignpossible) {
/// NOTE: It's right here that the bug mentioned above lies. It would be trivial
/// to change this if people thought it necessary. Just delete the next three
lines
/// and fix the whitespace.
if (align == layout->align)
params.align(LYX_ALIGN_LAYOUT);
else
params.align(align);
}
par.setLabelWidthString(labelwidthstring);
params.noindent(noindent);
}
}
