So am I correct that you want to have default values set in both the
bizobj *and* in the database? If so, am I the only one who thinks that this is
a very brittle design?
The reason the check is there is to avoid unnecessary traffic to the
database. IOW, if your bizobj has already handled the default values, there is
no need to call the database for each new record a second time. But it sounds
to me like you want the bizobj to only handle some of the logic, and let the
database handle the rest?
