Hi,
this is a simple doodle to help with resetting bones of an armature to their defaults in pose mode of blender 2.79. it was helpful first writing out the methods and then later putting the methods into a class. i show below the methods that were written first commented out. for example it can reset to default all unselected bones (i think that will come in handy when making poses/actions for facial rigging)
