I can definitely try. I don't actually mind using reflection to bash my way in, either (this is a fairly desperate situation for me), but changing the field still looks like it's not going to have any effect... unless I'm reading the code incorrectly, the DEFAULT member is completely ignored by the rest of the code in the class.
