[R] resetting par() to all defaults: par(reset=TRUE) ?

[Michael Friendly]

In a long session, producing multiple graphs, I sometimes repeatedly
change par() settings, particularly with multi-row/col displays.
If I'm using a script, I'll do

op <- par(newsettings)
... plots ...
par(op)

but sometimes I do things on the fly and can't easily back out
to the default settings.  I'm looking for someway to do the
equivalent of

par(reset=TRUE)

I suppose I could do something like create Rprofile.site containing

.First <- function() par.default <- par()

and then par(par.default), but maybe there's an easier way I haven't 
noticed.  [On Windows, I don't use Rprofile.site because it's one more
thing to update with each new version.]
