Comment(by glynn):

 Replying to [comment:10 hamish]:

 Updating WIND only makes sense if the next step is to copy WIND to
 somewhere more permanent (either DEFAULT_WIND or a named region).

 This opens up the issue of whether individual mapsets should have a
 DEFAULT_WIND. Or, alternatively, whether "g.region -d" and "g.region -s"
 should be synonyms for e.g. "g.region region=default" and "g.region
 save=default" respectively (with the former falling back to
 ../PERMANENT/DEFAULT_WIND if no region named "default" exists).
