It is too easy to remove configuration, like site preferences, with the “Reset Firefox” feature. E.g. (DATALOSSY STEPS!): 1. Go to about:support (Help → Troubleshooting information). 2. Press “Reset Firefox”. 3. Press Enter. …which can be “accomplished” quickly without looking by doing this: 2. Press “Tab”. 3. Press Enter twice. Actual results: Site preferences are lost. Expected results: It is not that easy to do that. Although a similar feature, “Clear Recent History”, activates the clear button by default, “Site Preferences” and “Offline Website Data” checkboxes are unset by default.

I think it's reasonable to make the Cancel button the default button for such a destructive action.
