Don't misunderstand me... I don't want the default changed, neither do I think the poll
would be valuable simply as a poll. What I suggested was that those who want the default
changed need to make an argument, not just continue to say everyone hates spatial
browsing; as part of that argument a properly conducted poll may be useful, but only as a
part of an argument for change. I'm not suggesting that a poll by itself would make up a
good reason to change anything.
