because it will be eating all your memory and because there are (still) 
unresolved nameclashes between libraries and because i (not being the 
maintainer of any installer-packages at all) think that people should 
have a minimum idea of what they are actually using on their machines.

in addition it has some extra advertising effect. i mean: just seeing 
that something zexy is loaded is one thing; but when you ever bothered 
to make it load you will remember it at least one pc-lifecycle and that 
pays _my_ taxes...

is this intended to be pro or contra terminal ?
i mean, i am very happy with using the terminal and i will not stop to 
start pd from my xterm just because it's gui has become fancy (it gives 
me some feeling of control ;-))
otoh, you might feel like "i still have to use that shity terminal and i 
was looking forward to the one-click installer, starter, registrar and 
everything of pd for the last half decade)

like ben suggested: in the File->Startup section you have an interface 
to the pd-startup properties. add the libraries you want to load there, 
and probably some other flags.
