My own policy, taken over from JD of yore, is to restore {""}. I myself do
it specifically to help out users who don't know about this stuff and may
have their tids in a twist due to somebody else's script not restoring the
default correctly. I would not do this in any script meant to run from from
a scripter's script editor where other work may be in progress.
