I, in fact, just went through this and would beg to differ. It is not
very kind to delete a complete directory tree without any warning, either
when you install (something like "data.default *WILL BE REPLACED ON
UPGRADE*") or it should check on upgrade and not remove it if it is there.
I lost my entire web site with nary a peep, and luckily had the most=
 important
stuff on another computer.

Nothing, anywhere, says anything about data.default getting overwritten /
replaced on upgrade.
