That's not the case currently and as far as I know that is so
intentionally. ini-development and PHP defaults differ not just in obscure
extension settings, but also in core options like error_reporting,
short_tags, maximum_execution_time, variables_order, register_argc_argv,
display_startup_errors, output_buffering, etc etc etc. If these differences
are not intentional, we should fix this. But I'm pretty sure they are.
