Removing noise from specs

Reminded by Bill's suggestion of putting the default buildroot into rpm
default macro configuration instead of having to set in each and every
spec, here's another long time wish of mine:
Have rpm default to %defattr(-,root,root,-) in %files section(s). It's the
right thing for most packages so it's really just noise in 90% of the
specs, it's an endless source of silly packaging mistakes (forgetting to
add it when splitting off a subpackage etc) and those who need special
permissions can set them with their own %defattr/%attr use.
Pretty please?
