I'd rather poll users with simple questions like:
- Should `transient-mark-mode' be ON by default?
- Should `show-paren-mode' be ON by default?
Of course, `transient-mark-mode' might not sound familiar to newbies.
Then we need to find a better way to describe what it actually does.
FWIW we can re-use a simple safe form like this one:
http://www.legito.net/report_bug.php
The output of this form is sent by email and the content of the email
looks like:
,----
| * [#A] Bug report :BUG:
| <2008-24-24 Mon 17:00>
| :PROPERTIES:
| :ID: fu3ouer3dt4igvt7fa2u4c6qv1
| :Package: org.el
| :Emacs: Emacs 22
| :END:
`----
So that you can easily gather the result of the poll in an Emacs
org-mode file.
