Alternative Transform Orientations Settings In Properties

What the problem

While working in 2.79 it was not the best experience when first TO was always Global and only then selected. If I worked more with Normal and less with Global I had to press all the time constraint button twice.

But current 2.8+ system, at least for me, work in same not the best way. When in Global TO alternative is Local , when in Local TO alternatve is Global . OK, cool ... but what if my main default TO's I use in work is Global and Normal ?

Imagime I need to do 80% of transforms in Global and 20% in Normal . I have two options:

  1. Swithc TO's all the time, what annoying even with fast custom PIE.
  2. Stay constantly in Normal and press for Global constraint button twice ( Normal alternative is Global ) all the time for same annoying experience.

What Proposed

I'd like to change my Global alternative to Normal (for cases when I need more Global and less Normal ), someone else may want to setup something else. Why not have in Properties settings for this alternative TO's?

1000% agree. This change annoyed me so much- because it was done to appease animators. Great for them, but I'm not an animator, so it screwed me over! having an option would allow everyone to be happy.
