Description
Great little module, exactly what I needed except for 1 thing:
I'd also like to select the default input format per node type.

#1
The project name suggests that this is what it does?
#2
Well,
It was almost a year ago since I posted this. So maybe things have changed in the module. But this is what I found out a year ago:
You can choose which filters can be used per Node Type, but not choose the one default filter of that Node Type. (Some users are not allowed to choose between the different filters so I want to define which one they will use).
#3
Per-role defaults combined with this module would be very very messy. I really don't want to get into that. :-)
#4
I created some patch for selecting a default formatter for each node type. It's necessary for creating nodes without a form (e.g. node_save() in feedapi_node.module).
Besides I added permissions for ignoring formatter restrictions.
Patch is made on current dev.

#6
New features only accepted against D6 version. Please reroll. I'm still not sure if I want to deal with something this messy. :-) I'd rather effort was put into making the core filter system suck less. There's a team working on that now that I'm sure could use more help.
