Prefect Community

Hi all. I was wondering, is this a correct way to set task defaults for an entire flow?

```from prefect.configuration import config

config.tasks.defaults.max_retries = 2
config.tasks.defaults.retry_delay = datetime.timedelta(seconds=10)```

Hi <@UKWJ5HNHG>! This looks right but I think the retry_delay can just be a number instead of the timedelta.

Thanks for confirmation. I tried using number of seconds directly, but it doesn't work (it works for loaded configurations (from env or toml files) only).
