make -mno-win32 the gcc default?

So, what does everyone think about making -mno-win32 the default for Cygwin?

This would mean that WIN32 variables would not be defined by gcc by default.
It would require a -mwin32 switch for these to be activated.

Earnie has been proposing this and I sort of like the idea but dread the
potential hue and cry that could result.

So, is the hue and cry from the lack of WIN32 counterbalanced by potentially
easier UNIX porting?
