[postgis-devel] shp2pgsql defaults

Two defaults have bothered me over the years:

- the default load format is not dump, it’s insert, which is way way slower, we should default to the fast one and only drop out of that in cases were we have to (like forced srs transformation)
- the default is to not build indexes, which mostly we always want, we should default to building indexes

Anyone get heated up over the idea of changing those defaults?
