Motivation
As discussed in the working group sync, the default validation PR #63, and other PR comments, we may want to avoid using the term "default" when discussing default validation. Specifically, default implies that there is one specific validation used across many execution functions, and that it will be selected automatically, which are not the case.
Proposed Solution
One possible rename is to convert it to the term "global". This gets rid of the downsides of the term "default". However, it may carry the connotation that a "global" validation function applies to all functions, but in reality, a function must opt in to this validation.
Putting up this PR to discuss the proposed name change. Personally I'm OK with either.
