There are often times when populating the "default" values of a form,
where I may be passing in a php boolean true/false value, and
currently the sfForm framework cannot parse this correctly.

For example, I when you have a field in doctrine that is defined as a
boolean, it will return php type true or false, as the value of that
field, regardless of if it is stored in the db as 1 or 0.

However, if I have a radio button or check box widget that is
technically a boolean, it should recognize if I pass a php type true/
false into the default value for that tag and properly type cast this
to an integer, 1 or 0 respectively.  An HTML form can never hold a php
boolean value, so I don't see how this would ever harm anything.

I took a look at the code, and there are several possible place where
this check/conversion could take place, but I think its up to you,
Fabien, to decide where this should go.  I would assume it would be
best coverted just before HTML output.

Thoughts?
