Default tab for Workflow Configuration window

The Workflow configuration window currently has "Canvas" as the default tab when clicking on whitespace in a workflow. 

Since workflow orientation, annotation settings, and progress settings tend to be consistent for a user, I think it makes more sense to have the default tab on something that might be more relevant to the user.

 

Workflow provides information that is useful...location of the workflow and constants related to the workflow.

Runtime has settings that can change often as the user is developing out the workflow.

 

So either of these would provide better access to more important info that that found on the Canvas tab.

@RodLight This is a great idea! I had never really thought about it, but I realized now that every time I click on the canvas and then go to the workflow configuration window, I always switch over to workflow or runtime tab and never really use the canvas tab.
