I agree, although I don't know about going to something that indepth,
for the defaults, however...
What I'd like to see is the basic plane converted to a basic cube.
a default material for the cube and a single lamp lighting it.
That way not everyone's beginner blend file has the monkey texture in it
when they aren't using it. ;)
I do think it would also be good to have a detailed sample blend file though
that users can load. Might even be a good idea to make this sample
blend file a benchmark file.
