Problem is, there are so many variables--and part of it is preference.
One example: W/ FWD most people's goals are to get rid of dastardly understeer. Having softing front sways means the car rotates better in corners, and potentially gives more traction up front. Downside is that steering responsiveness goes down, and you have to turn in a little quicker. For some that trade-off is worth it, for others it isn't. You could also have a toe out to the rear--but the downside to that is it can impact straightline stability, making it more dangerous for a person not familiar with the limits of the car.
There's no real one-size-fits-all because in part the "ideal" setting is what the driver is most comfortable w/ in pushing to the limit. Slight understeer is supposedly ideal (was it Carroll Smith who said that?), but some prefer neutral/slight oversteer, especially out of the exit of a turn.
