Hi Brian,

> A. Prefer public addresses over privacy addresses
> B. Prefer privacy addresses over public addresses

B. If an application wants to use the public address it will bind to it. Applications that don't explicitly choose don't seem to care, and then privacy addresses as default seems the best solution.
