#320: the ``default region'' term is somewhat misleading
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Reporter: 1gray | Owner: grass-dev at lists.osgeo.org

Priority: minor | Milestone: 7.0.0
Component: default | Version: unspecified

-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
The region that's currently named !``default!'' is, actually, never used
''by default'' -- it's the !``current!'' region that is.
It seems that the !``default!'' region is accessed only in the following
cases:
* it's ''always'' used when creating a mapset;
* it's used with {{{g.region}}} when explicitly requested by {{{-d}}}.
Doesn't it therefore make sense to retitle !``default region!'' to, say,
!``initial region!'' in GRASS 7?
