I think its exactly the opposite : its more dangerous having it on for
new users. The reason is the confusion as to what mode you're in (I'm
not a new user and I keep tripping up on that as my src blocks are
pretty big) and the potential slow up which others have noticed. 

Maybe the first time you open an org file in a window and it detects src
blocks it can even prompt and accept the customised setting there and
then and store it. Its a major enough feature to warrant that perhaps?
get-buffer-window can be used to determine if its being edited.
