I have it on good authority (Tony Norman at Innovation
First), that is is not only possible to write to the
default program space, but it is a recommended practice.

FIRST is recommending that teams download their code
twice (once in default, once in user) so that you will
not have to re-download your code in the heat of battle
if a glich toasts one copy of your code.

This happened a few times last year to the great
displeasure of the teams that it happened to. This is
a work around until the cause of these very infrequent
loss of code problems is discovered and prevented.
