Aircraft-aircraft collisions should definitely be another realism flag, but I don't know where the OSG intersection 'knobs' for that are :) I'll look into the /sim/realism/start-parked 'soon' (probably May or June), that gives plenty of time for people to debate the default parking position :) Any heuristic will have its problems, but since since the default is going to remain start-parked=false (i.e, start on the active runway as we currently do) hopefully it will be tolerable. start-dark (or more likely, an 'autostart' property) is mostly out of my hands, I can define the property and a standard menu item, but then the acft need to be updated to use it.
