Change your property to Integer and not int?  That way, it can be null

Hi,

I'm creating a text field to host an integer, namely the year that a house was 
built:
TextField<Integer>  yearBuilt = new TextField<Integer>( "yearBuilt" 
).setRequired( true );

And I'm using a CompoundPropertyModel that maps "yearBuilt" to an underlying bean property. My 
problem is that the default value for an integer is "0", so the text field pre-populates its value 
to "0", which is a rather silly year built date ;)  What I would like to do is mark the field as 
required and validate against a number range, but display the text field without an initial value.

I know I can make it a TextField<String>  and then validate on submission, but what has me intrigued is my exploration 
into the DropDownChoice and the creation of renderers. For example, I have a dropdown list from which a user can choose a 
value between 0 and 50,000 (increments of 1000), but I built a custom renderer that displays "No Coverage" for 
"0" (insurance industry.) Can I build a custom renderer for the initial value of a text field so that if I see 
"0" I return "", otherwise I return the actual value, e.g. 2001?

Thanks in advance,
Steve
