You could file an enhancement request, not sure how high the priority would be. 
Currently you can use <comma><comma> to enter a blank value for the field, and 
<right-arrow><comma><comma> to keep the default value for the field (because 
right-arrow clears the selection range).  With your change you'd have to 
explicitly blank (backspace, I suppose) default text you didn't want to remain.

 Subject: Abbreviation default text
   
Here's another abbreviation question. Is there a way to populate the variable 
field with default text that remains after moving to the next field? For 
example:
foobar;;=Use <|foo|> and <|bar|> in a sentence.
When the abbreviation is expanded (executed) the text `foo` is highlighted and 
I can add new text to replace it, then hit `,,` and go the the next field and 
`bar` is selected. Is it possible to leave `foo` and `bar` in place as defaults 
without having to retype them?
If not, would this be an appropriate enhancement request?
