[Bf-committers] Default autosmooth angle

[Paweł Łyczkowski]

"Rather than a value which does nothing (and therefor works in no
cases)?"

That's not true - autosmooth at 180 allows you to manually control the 
sharp edges, by marking them as sharp. Due to this, I think 180 as 
default is a good choice.
