I think a localized default behavior is more important than a fixed
default behavior for everyone. We already adjust the locales and
encodings in initdb and this is just a natural extension of that theme.
No robust application will rely on the default setting anyway; if you
want to be sure you have to set it or at least query it anyway.

The regression tests are not affected by this (which may itself be an
issue of concern).
