In Extbase, the first controller of a plugin is the default.
The first action in the list of actions is the default action.

So, in order to change the default controller/action, simply adjust the 
Tx_Extbase_Utility_Extension::configurePlugin() code in the 
ext_localconf.php file of the extension.

If you need multiple defaults, I'd suggest to create multiple plugins.
A plugin in Extbase is just a collection of controller & actions, so it 
is really "cheap".

If you only want to have one plugin and still want to change the default 
controller/action, you can use the switchableControllerAction option, as 
Daniel mentioned. But that comes at some cost (you can't use the 
skipDefaultArguments feature and you can't have custom flexforms for 
every view).
