Just an observation: I think a lot of the "default" terminology is
confusing as default means more like automatically selected when no
event or metric are given. Reading default as meaning default makes
the comments on perf_stat__print_shadow_stats_metricgroup somewhat
counter intuitive.

Thanks,
Ian
