Hello,

I think the problem is that Unices don't have the concept of
system level defaults. Gnome and KDE do, but they are not the system.
What would you do on a text-only Debian Squeeze server? Or an Android
phone? Or an OpenWRT router?
Even if the computer had Gnome, what would you do if you were
connected to the machine through a text-only ssh-session?

So it's all up to the user or, in our case, mc.ext.
