I guess you're right. It would be nice to be able to set that sort of
thing once, and then have all applications respect the choice, at least
by default.
Well, a quick search seems to indicate that some DEs already have this,
e.g. Gnome, with its /etc/gnome/defaults.lst. I guess you want
something that's DE independent.
