If you like it, great, and that's why there are options. The "cut and
paste for shell" people like you can have an option. But for the vast
and overwhelming majority of the rest of us, don't change the default.
In otherwords, put the default back how it was, and keep the new
option for nice folks like Eric who have this minority use case.
