Menu Item "Edit->Make Current Values Default" should be grayed out when current values equal to defaults.

Status: New

Time to time I using this menu for setting values to defaults. I put some strings or values into some controls, then select following menu:

The problem - when menus selected second time - item still active, and I'm slightly frustrated - is my current values already defaults or not? I select this again and again...

 

Suggestion - when current values are equal to defaults then this menu item should be gray (as menu Cut Copy, etc on screenshot above).

 

The same with Reinitialize Values to Default. What happened when this item will be selected? 

 

This slightly related to this idea, but I would like to post this idea separately.

This also can be classified as light cosmetic bug (because when menu called second time, it does nothing in general).

Also when VI just opened - this menu should be grayed - then this fact can show, that current values are equal to defaults.
