It has always bothered me that some widgets store state, rather than a 
default value.
This means that to ensure that a model opens in a consistent state, one must
exhaustively specify the parameters in `startup`.  There is another very 
serious
problem: two students working on the same project may correctly believe 
that 
they have made no conflicting code changes to their joint model, yet their 
version control system tells them they have produced a conflict.  Why? 
 Because
e.g. they both moved the same slider, but to different values.

This is a very serious problem.  It is another reason, and a very good one, 
to change
NetLogo widgets to store a chosen default value rather than the current 
state.
