I'm not sure if it helps for the "default-route" case, but you could try 
"max-metric router-lsa on-startup 300" (under "router ospf ...").

This is similar to the ISIS overload bit - for the first 300 seconds,
OSPF will announce bad metrics, so that no other router will voluntarily
pick a path through the newly-booted router (if another path exists).

Loopbacks work, since there is no other path.

But as I said, I'm not sure if that works for default-route origination
as well.

PS: this is one of my *other* problems - we use EIGRP for "carry loopback"
(which has much nicer fast-convergence properties than OSPF and ISIS
built right in...), and it has no similar mechanism, as far as I know.
*grumble at Cisco*.
