Hi.

I'm running SF 2.1.2 and I've noticed that the default= behaviour seems 
to have changed.

I have:

| {{{field|Time|input type=text|size=8|default=9am}}}

However, if the user deliberately clears the field (because they do not 
want the time at all), when the page is saved the default value is set. 
Also when editing using Edit with Form the default value is applied again.

It did not do this with earlier versions (tested with 2.0.9). The field used to stay cleared as the user wanted. The above is a trivial example. I have loads of use cases that are now broken by this changed behaviour.

Having the form re-populate with the default is a real pain. A null input is just as valid as a populated one in certain cases!

Any thoughts?

Thanks
Neill.
