I do agree that good defaults are important.  But backwards

I think some things would be really sane to have on by default, such
as :syntax on, but at the same time it's a whole hell of a lot easier
to change the defaults by providing a .vimrc that gets sourced if the
user doesn't have a .vimrc than change the defaults in the source (as
that affects everyone).
