<p>I think some of this has been provided by the GeoTools DataStoreFactory.Param

class. At least I think default values are mentioned.</p>

<p>Q: What should the default value appear as

(I assume we use the value when creating the default params when the DataStore

is 1st created) either:

a) show the value but don't record it - so we know to use the default in the future

b) leave the entry empty (and have the default provided at runtime)

c) only use the default value for intial param generation</p>

Exactly, that the expected use of DataStoreFactory.Param after all.

The default value definitely should appear when creating a new datastore

config, since users generally will not know what they should be, as for the

case of default database port numbers or those parameters used as hints.</p>

<p>I don't remember right now, but think Param has no 'optional' flag, so I'm

inclined to show the default param value in it's textbox letting the user

change it. The point of actually writting it or not may be a bit confusing,

so I advocate for option C too.</p>
