Making it default might be a first step.

We may also consider to remove the softakeover function entirely and integrate it fixed to sliders and knobs. This way Mixxx can decide if a CO need softtakover or not.

Do we have a use case where it is up to the mapper to decide for softtakeover?

Hm, the user may not want soft-takeover if the resolution of the controller knobs are bad or you really want to change them quickly then it can mis-fire.

Making it the default in MIDI learn would probably be good for knob/faders though. But it would probably need to vary based on CO.

Default would be okay for me if the mapping can still disable it. On my 4-channel controller I have disabled softTakeover for all channels controls except the shared pitch slider because I want the controls to react immediately and there's no risk they get out of sync with the GUI.
