I can only think of few situations within preflets where a defaults button
is necessary, as such I do not see a place for them in preflets in general
personally I much prefer the 'revert' style. I can see how they could be
comforting to the user to know no matter how much they fiddle they can
always reset everything. 

Now this is heading towards R2 territory but how about a separate preflet
with which you can reset to factory defaults and save, load apply profiles
of settings?

I never said that, IIRC. A "Defaults" button is often a good idea, I think.
