Klauss,
Thanks for your response.
You mention one very important parameter
" Those ... who care about color..."
which immediately separates the users in two group, with the other group
incorporating those who care about the color but do not have the knowledge
to control it. The Photoshop defaults do compensate for many but are
selected conservatively.

Looking at Photoshop/Illustrator CS3 and CS4, one would be tempted to say
that these are the most common CMYK spaces used to create documents (just
copy and paste the following lines if this is your answer):

Europe: FOGRA27 (ISO 12647-2; 2004)
I can only give an account of Europe: Those Europeans who care about color
use FOGRA39 based CMYK spaces as default as these are in line with the
current ISO standard. The profile "ISO coated v2 (ECI)" from eci.org is
used much more often for that purpose than the FOGRA39 profile that ships
with Adobe products. But I guess the Adobe FOGRA27 profile you mentioned
(AKA "Europe ISO Coated") is still more widespread in Europe as Adobe
products still don't ship with a FOGRA29 preset.
Is Photoshop 5 Default CMYK still seen a lot nowadays?
no.
