Defaulting on the debts wouldn't make them go away - they'd still exist and they'd still be denominated in euros. There's also the matter of a large chunk of Greek state assets having been put into a trust fund as part of the current bailout to guard against such an event.
I also read somewhere that the idea Schäuble floated of Greece taking a break from the euro wasn't at all as generous as it might sound on the surface

I don't know, but I doubt it.
I hadn't heard that, but a lot ended up as framed artwork to hang on the wall as they were otherwise thought to be worthless.
