I can understand being nervous about this considering the criticality
of the context.

The only thing I didn't consider immediately but thought of later is
creating a PM function to at least switch to using UI or DEFAULT and
possibly setting/correcting and then a COM32 module to use this
function.

(for reminder: my UI branch stored both UI and DEFAULT but would
switch from using UI to DEFAULT on certain guaranteed failure
conditions.  current behavior only uses UI if present, regardless of
failures).
