I added this to section 3.2 of the spec a while back (possibly after
the public review draft went out):
"The DefaultValue annotation may be used to supply a default value for
some of the above, see the Javadoc for DefaultValue for usage details
and rules for generating a value in the absence of this annotation and
the requested data."
I'll be publishing a new draft shortly that will contain this.
