I forgot to add a short personal rant :)

The ambiguity of the /stored/ and /(no)default/ modifiers is a huge 
source of confusion and errors. Such a bad design :/ (Obviously FPC is 
not liable for it.)

Having only the "stored" modifier would be so much simpler. (And you 
would be able to store all integer values in a property - currently you 
always have to choose one value that is not stored.)
