When modifying and saving nodes via e.g. Views Bulk Operations per node discuss settings are lost and reset to the per content standard. It seems like the disqus setting has no proper default or rather, the code doesn't think to check if there is an existing value for that field.

I'm wondering if there is a way to enforce a greater persistency: we have only a limited number of pages within one node type that actually require Disqus comments and having to revert the toggles by hand is a long and boring process.
