Hi all, Emacs itself is replacing the initial input in the minibuffer during queries with default value which is less intrusive if one doesn't like the suggested value, i.e., one doesn't have to do C-a C-k etc.
I'd like to suggest that we follow this change also in AUCTeX. I've implemented this already for minipage environment in change 36a6d80e1b. The change in general will affect TeX-read-string, completing-read and such. My idea is to show the default value which will be used in the prompt in order to reduce the hassle with M-n to find out which value will come. Before touching the rest, I like to discuss this here and hear from users and developers what they think. Any comments welcome. Best, Arash
