Please use a hashtable as second argument (after name of option), so that any future default can be added without changing API and plugins calling this function.
Thanks!

Patch attached. Coarsely tested for all script languages. :)

Plugin variables have no default, so /set plugin.* looks weird because all scripts options have (default: "")

An api function: weechat.config_set_plugin_defaults(option, default_value, description)

Would allow changing the following snippet (from urlserver.py):


        for option, value in urlserver_settings_default.items():
            if weechat.config_is_set_plugin(option):
                urlserver_settings[option] = weechat.config_get_plugin(option)
            else:
                weechat.config_set_plugin(option, value[0])
                urlserver_settings[option] = value[0]
            if int(version) >= 0x00030500:
                weechat.config_set_desc_plugin(option, '%s (default: "%s")' % (value[1], value[0]))


to:


        for option, value in urlserver_settings_default.items():
            weechat.config_set_plugin_defaults(option, value[0], value[1])
            urlserver_settings[option] = weechat.config_get_plugin(option)


Ignoring the int(version) issue, this moves responsibility of displaying plugin defaults in descriptions from scripts to the /set system which already supports it. Scripts don't have to reinvent the wheel to display defaults, it's already in place. Less code duplication, and a more uniform look. Along with shorter code per script.
