 1. Load 3+ bands raster (say 6 bands Landsat), set 5-4-3 to default
 2. Try to load 3 bands raster.

 Nothing show up.

 This is understandable, as QGIS is trying to apply 5-4-3 to the raster
 which is only 1-2-3. But we might think about making it more user
 friendly. As general user will probably be confused, asking "where is my
 raster". There are two options:

 1. If raster with number bands that is less than current default value
 loaded, ignore currently set value (5-4-3).

 2. Make several default options for values for 2,3,4,5,6 bands rasters.
 This approach is used in Arcview Image Analysis. Very productive to some
 people, who are working with different kinds of rasters.
