  Right, it's like MuseScore:

  - It's simple to understand with the right iconography.
  - It's convenient when you're working with a lot of settings.
  - By being enabled or disabled, it indicates whether or not a control is set to the default value or not.
  
  Some extra rules I thought of:
  
  - With the checkable label example in the mockup above, it should reset both the label and the checkbox.
  - In cases where there is no default value and a user is expected/required to change the value (e.g., LineEdits for the user's first and last names), we should not show a reset button.
    - I don't want users to mistake it for a clear text or undo button.
