Summary: We need full control over default view properties and tool properties. View templates alone are not the answer, and "Apply to New Views of This Type" does not provide control of individual view types.

Description: We need control over default view properties and tool properties. What controls these? E.g. Underlay? Clipping? Why does a section cut default to an excessive depth? Why does Mirror tool always default to 'Copy' while other tools seem to remember their last setting?

These settings should be controllable so that all new views of that type are affected. Currently this is available for very broad categories of views, but this function groups multiple view types together which is not enough control.
