Default values for service interfaces

Hi,
Can I make a request for the next iteration of VODataService.xsd that
the Param type also has a <defaultValue> subelement so that it would be
possible to specify default values for HTTP GET interfaces at least.
This means that auto-generated clients for such services could be
preloaded with example values.
For example, a ConeSearch interface might have:
<param>
<name>RA</name>
<defaultValue>180</defaultValue>
</param>
<param>
<name>DEC</name>
<defaultValue>-1</defaultValue>
</param>
<param>
<name>SR</name>
<defaultValue>0.1</defaultValue>
</param>
Cheers,
Matthew
