There is no clear appropriate default.
The appropriate resolution depends on the nature of the material.
For reading on a handheld ebook reader, I'd say 100dpi is about right.
For printing, I dunno.

Perhaps there should be no default at all, and an explicit resolution
should always be required?
My inclination is to simply follow whatever upstream does.
