I wouldn't be opposed to either one, but I don't see an option to do
so after digging around in the admin panel for about 10 minutes. The
closest I found was 'Query defaults' under 'Parameters'. This has two
fields:
mybugstemplate:
buglist.cgi?bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&email1=%userid%&emailtype1=exact&emailassigned_to1=1&emailreporter1=1

defaultquery: bug_status=RESOLVED&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&emailassigned_to1=1&emailassigned_to2=1&emailreporter2=1&emailcc2=1&emailqa_contact2=1&order=Importance&long_desc_type=substring

similar, yes, but doesn't let me set the default columns. If you or
someone else can point to where to set it, I'd be happy to.

Cheers,
Austin
