We're already doing that, though.

Yes, there are other situations where it's handy to add new default
ignores, too.  But if I have to chose between default-ignoring new types
and being able to override defaults, I'll take the latter.  I'd be
happier if I didn't have to make that choice.

I don't at the moment, but there are lots of cases in developing
proprietary software where all you have is a .a or .so.  I assume it
will happen to Python software, sooner or later.
