I agree with Mihai that the default should be Romanian Standard. I don't see good reason to deviate from the established standard. On the contrary, that fact that there is a standard should make the decision even easier.
However, I do see good reasons for not making Romanian Programmers the default. As a user, if I'd want to change my keyboard layout to Romanian, I (and most likely your typical Romanian user) wouldn't expect the diacritics to be accessible on the 3rd level. My first reaction would be to think that something is broken if diacritics didn't start appearing upon hitting keys on the right-hand side of the keyboard. I would think that the Romanian Programmers layout would be a keyboard layout foreign to most Romanians.
