Right. Generally, I agree to Drew's point of view. But on the other
hand, what would be an advantage of switching on savehist mode by
default? Maybe it would make it easier for users of other editors to
switch to Emacs because savehist mode provides a feature they are used
to and they could miss. This might be a good point indeed.
