Default "Best" primer for painted cabinetry...

I'm curious about how folks paint their woodwork. Not a rub through

surface, and then lay down one, maybe two real nice coats of paint.
Seems crazy to try and be leveling defects in paint, right? Right?!!!

Yup! The smoothness of the primer is what you see after painting.
