Defaults matter.

Agree to disagree. If I have the choice to make the smoothen the transition centrally with PHP defaults or rely on each user to do it manually by proactively setting warning modes I prefer the defaults way. Remember: I am not advocating staying in the warning mode, I'm just seeing it as a useful intermediate step for legacy stuff we want to fix. - Chris
