How about creating graphics for the web? You don't do all that in vector using Illustrator. Not everyone here is talking about logo's and print work.

On topic: First thing I do is press 'D' aswell, then shift + F5 & ENTER to fill the canvas with white. Even though my background color has to be a different color quite often

I generally set my background, draw out a starter content area, and layout whatever grid I'll be working with.

I replace the default color swatches to one with a single black swatch. This way, I can add swatches as needed without too much clutter.
