The original issue written up in What is region meta_header for?... was about how blocks that aren't assigned a region will just end up in the first available region. Currently, it doesn't seem like there's any default configuration for block placement.
Reason to add default block placement:
- Keep site-builders from having to cleanup the theme blocks when the install zurb foundation.
- Potentially make this theme a little bit more "user friendly" while still keeping it very vanilla.
Solution
- Add install config files for blocks in the main theme that places them in regions.
- Add mirroring config files in the STARTER theme.(Actually, this is a core issue, and it'll be resolved there. I don't think we should make duplicate configuration.)

erutan commentedSeems reasonable to me. :)
Marking this as RBTC given it provides a more pleasant experience for users and is easily reversible (they'll be on the block placement screen at some point). It seems like an easy win.
