For the "factory setting" default, I'd mirror MSWord (10pt
Times). However, from the many replies, it's clear that people
have different opinions. It really should be user definable.
A user would define it in MSWord by changing his
Templates/Normal.dot. Given that AbiWord doesn't really have a
template equivalent (I think...), stuffing it in the options menu
would do the job.
Of course, I'm lazy and think 10pt Times is just fine... :-)
