Call me weird, I personally like it this way. Maybe something
similar to Xt's action through resources/configuration should
be provided so the user can change the default binding.

I agree with you here and find it's irritating sometimes too.
For V0.88, there will be no pre-selection if loading and editing
an existing file. However, if starting a new form, button
will be pre-selected.
