Avoid implying that ancillary APIs w/ new information should default to enabled. #385

Fixes #372.

I considered reversing the order, to start with "should follow their users' needs in deciding the default enabledness [ew] of ancillary ...", but I think the key in this principle is that users should be able to change it more easily than by switching browsers.

[Also, it's kind of amazing that we don't have a better word for the question of whether something is enabled or disabled. https://english.stackexchange.com/q/92781/122144, https://english.stackexchange.com/q/102995/122144, and https://stackoverflow.com/q/2544435/943619 don't have options I like.]
