Well, the main thing we'd lose if we remove it is all trace of upward
compatibility from the contrib version of tsearch. People are
accustomed to using query functions that rely on a default configuration
setting. Even though I want to prohibit use of a default in the
definition of an index or auto-update trigger, I don't see a good reason
to forbid it in queries.
