Default natural gas grill?

that is what prompted me to post, I am trying to think of everything like
this as we build, even if we wait to get the grill, as i think a bed might
be higher on the list, lol, i also have it in the plans for gas to go to the
laundry and kitchen even though i prefer an el dryer and DH is leaning to an
el stove, i figure if its run and we want a change or want to sell later it
will be positive either way,

as a small aside all of this gas running got started as dh and i discussed
fitting for the cat genis we want, now its in the plans for having three of
them, but they are quite pricey so it will be one of those things we save
for and get when we can, but having a plumber come every time we want to
install one would triple the cost,
