IE4D : Defaulted Field Values

You can now setup Services so that all fields are either initialised (spaces/zeroes) or not (LOW-VALUES).

When setting all Service fields to default to low values you can also default individual fields to spaces where you need to. But it is not obvious on the field list that you have done that.

Also, there needs to be a way to remove the defaulted field value so that it picks up the Service default. Numeric fields are examples of fields that once set to zero, can't be unset.
