A major revision is always a good opportunity to change things like default settings that have been around for a long time. A good example for this is the [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=230448 forwarding mode], which is "as attachment" by default and is cause for many problems and inquiries in user forums, especially for new users just migrating from other e-mail clients. Changing it to "inline" would resolve many issues. There are most likely other settings for which the default was set a long time ago, where it appeared to be a good choice at that time, but where it may no longer be the best choice today.
