You mean so that it won't change in the future?  I don't think that is a
good idea.  

I expect users to actually read the menu.  If they don't read it, I
assume that they will select the first item and thus this should be the
default.

That is quite possible.  Making --fixed-list-mode the default was a more
incompatible change; despite that I know only of one tool which fails
(kgpg).  Thus I doubt that there will be many problems with a change in
this menu.  Actually the key generation menu has always been dynamic
(check --expert, --enable-dsa) and problems should have popped up
already.


Salam-Shalom,
