The second line seems like a good idea to me.  The user can always modify
the property in their code if they have custom build types.

The first line seems like a bad idea.  I think the default build type should
be left to the project.  Currently you can set it manually before
project().  I think a variable you could set before project() which
initialized the cache variable for you isn't a bad idea so long as it says
next to it in the docs not available in 2.8.

This could be added to some default startup macro, no?
