[midPoint] Changes waiting to be applied

Reading through some of your documentation regarding "Execute after all
approvals" versus "Execute Immediately". Is there any way to set Execute
Immediately as the default execution strategy?

When users use the Request A Role page, there is no such option. In order
to not confuse our users, we'd prefer not even giving them this option to
begin with and to just use "Execute Immediately" as the default.

Thanks,
