Comment (by martinl):

 Replying to [comment:4 wenzeslaus]:
 > I agree that the current default is not ideal. Preferred behavior
 probably depends on the use case, but `-c` as default is quite different
 from what everybody else does (so potentially it is unexpected): loading
 each vector layer to map display with different single color versus
 different color for each feature in the vector map/layer. I think it is a
 great checkbox, just not sure if it should be enabled by default.

 You are right, `-c` shouldn't be enabled by default. After some testing I
 can say that it's messy in many cases (point layers for example). I am
 leaving this ticket open in order to implement new GUI settings to
 colorize map layers (not features) similarly as other software do.
