Hi,
http://bugzilla.abisource.com/show_bug.cgi?id=247 gives some more insight
into this RFE (IMHO, this is not a bug, but still something that should be
fixed). I think that somewhere in the PT we aren't recognizing that the
properties are the same as the defaults in pp_Property.cpp and thus not
ignoring them. Just a thought. I guess that I will look into this sometime
soon.
