 Replying to [comment:1 jane]:
 > It should remember the user's choice (so they only ever hit excerpt
 once).

 I'm in agreement with you on this point.

 > Is there a reason make this more of a developer choice instead of a user
 choice? At that point, would think the request would be for filters on
 everything that is currently a user view choice?

 In context, I was approaching this from the perspective of a developer
 setting up the initial environment for a client.  But from a user
 perspective I think having persistent, user-based defaults would be a
 better approach.  I'll revisit this after I have some time to think about
 a cleaner implementation than just calling `get_user_meta()` on
 everything.
