I believe it was a mistake when BigDecimal / BigInteger converters
were added that they didn't provide a default value and wasn't
subsequently changed for compatibility reasons. You can simply
register instances of those converters with default values yourself to
overcome this:
Converter converter = new BigDecimalConverter(new BigDecimal("0.0"));
ConvertUtils.register(converter, BigDecimal.class);
