Comment (by micha):

 Not sure I agree with your suggestion.
 First I'd rather '''not''' see Project specific options mixed in with
 Global options.
 Second, I'm afraid that enabling OTF by default would cause more problems
 than it would solve (esp. when adding rasters in another CRS...). Also I
 don't particularly like the "Arcview mode" (project CRS set by the first
 loaded layer) for the same reason.

 Perhaps the prob of specifying the CRS for a new project could be solved
 by popping up a window when the "New Project" button is pressed to select
 the CRS for that project? This will not help when first starting up QGIS,
 but the current behavior seems reasonable to me.
