Comment(by deryni):
I think the idea here is that we may want to change our default since the
people who want it off are more likely to be able to find it to turn off
than people who want it on are likely to be able to turn it on.
I am however a bit concerned that the two quoted test subjects may both
have had strong MSN backgrounds and that it may have biased there
expectations. It would be nice to know if this issue bore out across
people coming from other client backgrounds as well (as I think MSN may be
unique in this handling of online/offline buddies by default).
