I think it is fine to worth considering this change because it "makes sense for all users."  If this is in the recommended Cocoa API practices, for example, I'd be more than happy to make this change.  If this makes sense for (say) all GNUStep users, and we can determine that we are using GNUStep, then I'd be fine with turning it on in that case as well because that would make sense for that platform (as decided by those project owners).
