Just to pitch in another possible alternative, would it be possible to
have the crm shell not _impose_ defaults outright, but instead suggest
them via tab completion in interactive mode? As in "params foo=<tab>"
being expanded to "params foo=bar" assuming the RA defines a default of
"bar" for the resource param "foo"?
