According to
http://atroche.org/post/30994290348/javascript-indentation
the most widely used (and recommended) indentation in Javascript is two
spaces.
`js-indent-level' defaults to 4. Would it make sense to change this?

Quite a few programmers dislike 2 as basic offset; see

Different people have different preferences, true.
How does that make using the most popular value as default a bad idea?

You'll have to point these good points out, because I didn't see any
there.
Some people there say "use tabs", but I assume those are vi users. :-)

I'd be happy to see that default change.
