I'd want to caution about catering specifically to this rare scenario. 
Presumably you are using the programmable pipeline because you want to 
create some shader effects of your own... there wouldn't be much 
improvement to having a default shader if you still have to jump through 
hoops to reset it to something useful.

To that end, if this sort of automatic setting should be done it should 
be configurable, ala al_set_new_bitmap_shader or whatnot.
