How to set Child Entities to Yes for all Software?

Is there a way to globally turn recursion on for all software in GLPI 0.72?

When the software inventory is imported from OCS-ng, all entries show up with the Child Entities field set to No.

I could not find a setting to default this to Yes. If it cannot be set using the GUI, what file would I have to modify to set it to Yes?

It doesn't exists.

I think this is mainly usefull for software under license.
And as we have some performance issue with recursive software (of course on large DB), I don't think it is a good idea to set all software recursive until we fix this.

But on the other hand, software will be created separately for every entity ... so it feels like much more DB entries
