present questinos with a different default answer. Somebody submitted
a patch to me once which did something this but I lost it (my bad) so
I'm just going to re-implement it with thanks to whomever it was who
gave me the idea.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
