you can edit the default value, e.g.:
<entry name="height" mtime="1234567" schema="/schemas/apps/aisleriot/height" 
type="int" value="262"/>

This way, the administrator can change the default value used by
applications. There is also a way to set mandatory settings the user
can't override.

Of course it's more elegant to put the upstream default values in a
directory the sysadmin cannot touch, and to
keep /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults for his use.
