So do you think this will change in 64bit Delphi and then in 64bit
FPC?  RTTI structures also supporting 64bit values? It would make
sense (to me at least). :-)

I just thought it odd that I couldn't use a simple type (I consider
Extended a simple type, like Integer and String) in a property with a
default value.
