We could make the "Cap Ends" option remember the last used value for 
each session (like radius), That means youd only need to set it once per 
usage.

As to weather having a tube is is useful or not, I can imagine if you 
happened to use tube rather then cylinder all the time its a bit 
annoying. but there are objects we dont have that could be more useful 
then tube.
* hemisphere? - Iv had to make a sphere into a hemisphere more then once..
* torus/donut? - less hassle then adding nurbs and then converting.
* Dodecahedron- why not, its a cool 3d shape ;)

Of course we can have all of them but then you end up with loads of 
object types in your menu, and if some are almost the same its silly.

Ill look at adding a menu for python defined objects also so people can 
do have their own custom data.
