I object.  I don't think that is the right setting.  I don't think there
*is* a right setting that applies to all bzrlib clients.  Explicit
better than implicit.  Resist the temptation to guess.

I don't think clients should have to undo these settings.  I don't see a
need for this change, since you get the default path anyway if you call
load_plugins.
