A very valid point.

This gets even more complicated because it's not really clear what is supposed 
to be the "default options set". Each distribution configures it's own style 
which impacts window titles, fonts, background colours, button styles and so 
on.

I have no idea what defines the "default set of options" in this context. 
Perhaps someone else knows ?
