Do we want to make it a default to True for users of DevStack? I think it may be worth considering since I'm not familiar with this issue with crypto and having something that protects devs who are trying to work on stuff and using DevStack , sounds good. Less cryptic day to day breakage for new developers just getting started and using DevStack is a goal I have, long term (where possible).

Putting it another way, do you believe that *not* using constraints is the exception, not the norm?
