Because if we decide in lyx 1.3.0 that some bool should be true by default
instead of true, then we have big problems when reading old files.

What could be done maybe is to output at the beginning things like
<defaults>
 <column alignment="center" valignment="top" leftline="true" rightline="false" 
width="0pt" special="">
 <trow topline="true" bottomline="true" endhead="false" endfirsthead="false" 
endfoot="false" endlastfoot="false" newpage="false">
 <cell multicolumn="0" alignment="center" valignment="top" topline="true" 
bottomline="false" leftline="true" rightline="false" rotate="false" usebox="none" 
width="0pt" special="">
</defaults>

So that when reading back, we know what assumptions have been made.

Does that make sense?
