"defaultProfile" seems to work only at old top-level place

{
    "$schema": "https://aka.ms/terminal-profiles-schema",
    "defaultProfile": "{0caa0dad-35be-5f56-a8ff-afceeeaa6101}",

But not at new location

{
    "$schema": "https://aka.ms/terminal-profiles-schema",
    "globals" : 
    {
        "alwaysShowTabs" : true,
        "defaultProfile": "{0caa0dad-35be-5f56-a8ff-afceeeaa6101}",

Greetings
