Re: Abbreviation default text
You could file an enhancement request, not sure how high the priority would be. Currently you can use to enter a blank value for the field, and 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.

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.

Re: Abbreviation default text
Just answered my own question. Instead of typing text to replace the default, simply press right arrow key before `,,` to advance to the next field.

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?
