It's a dumbing down vs ease of use compromise... no correct answer..

Others may not agree, but IMO centroids are a "debugging" feature and it
is ok to have them off by default from the GUI. Regarless, a solution
that sets their default symbol to "x" while leaving the points default
symbol as "o" would be nice.
