Good day,

I maintain an R package which makes use of functions such as bplapply which has 
bpparam() as the default. I have received feedback from a beginnre user that 
the results change when he knitted his R Markdown document a second time. This 
stems from the default constructor of bpparam() which sets no RNGseed. I am 
wondering about the desirability of changing the RNGseed default in 
BiocParallel to a particular uncontroversial number, such as 12345, so that 
beginners get deterministic behaviour.
