I would suggest that there be an option variable which the user can set
to specify the default action, and that the default be :ASK (the new
behavior) for the benefit of new ZMACS users. Unfortunately, I can't
then think of a way for the user to override the default, since ^XF
already uses its numeric argument (maybe a negative numarg means set it
to the absolute value and ask the question - that is pretty gross,
though).
