Isn't the behavior different, though?  If I do a 'make oldconfig'
after a kernel upgrade, new options that don't have defaults will stop
and prompt me, whereas ones with a listed default will just select the
default without asking.

I though the desire was to not have it stop and ask unless it really
was something that the user needed to make a decision about.
