Форумы / Cotonti / Support / Default value in extra fields for pages not working?

Not sure if I am doing it wrong in the settings for the extra fields for pages. But when you add a "value" to the input it never adds that value as default value of the field.

In the Cotonti admin panel you can add extra fields for pages:
admin.php?m=page&s=extrafields
By default the input for extra1 shows this:

<input class="text" type="text" maxlength="255" size="56" />

When you change it to this:

<input class="text" type="text" maxlength="255" size="56" value="test" />

It never adds the value to the field.

I tried "title=blablabla" and that works, when you hoover with the mouse over the field you see that text. But "value" for some reason seems not to be added no matter what I do.
I made sure in my DB the default value for page_extra1 is not overwritten, it has no default value there neither.

Is this a bug or can't you set a default value to extra fields?
