Clearly, that's the one you're used to from the rest of your w32 world.
Whether it's better or not also depends on whether you use and like
delete-selection-mode.
In any case, I don't think the default will change any time soon in this
respect, but I do hope that we will change the code so that end users
can choose between the two behaviors.
