Whatever the default. It would make sense to have a warning popup when a 
setting is created which is unlikely to "work". E.g if you have a mac-menubar 
and enable auto-raise it should say something along the lines of:
"Warning: Due to its nature, the auto-raise function does not work very well 
together with the menubar on top of the screen. You might want to consider to 
disable one of these two options."

with two check boxes "disable auto-raise"  / "disable menubar on top of 
screen".

Cheers,
Waldo
