That makes for interesting method names in the View Service of the 
Component Architecture. So, these:

  def getDefaultViewName(self, object, type, default=_marker):
  def getRequestDefaultViewName(self, object, request, default=_marker):


Might become these:

  def getDefaultViewName(self, object, type):
  def getDefaultViewNameDefault(self, object, type, default=None):

  def getRequestDefaultViewName(self, object, request):
  def getRequestDefaultViewNameDefault(self, object, request,
                                       default=None):


While they do make sense, they look very silly.
