It is useful to occasionally drop into the PERMANENT to use 
"g.copy perm_map,map at other_mapset", so that a base map will be available
to all mapsets without qualification or risk of accidental damage.


Maybe add a "are you sure you want to do this?" dialogue window to the
GUI startup menu if the PERMANENT mapset is selected.
