 for is the permalink setting page? Leave it to the user. This should not
 be forced on users.

 Do you really think this is not needed? If you dont want it enabled, then
 simply go to the permalink settings page? Set defaults to the most
 commonly used settings, make life easier for users.

 (Kinda sarcastic there btw)

 I've always wondered why fancy permalinks are not enabled by default,
 Granted, They're not hard to enable, And its simple to tell if its going
 to work (in most cases). I guess the fact it relies on the .htaccess being
 listened to is the main reasoning why its not, afterall, there are other
 web servers than apache.
