Right now, it is not doing what you are suggesting here,the widget just does
not let you type anything when you try to input 0 and "not" making it "default"

But, this is what it is doing right now.It is changing the value automatically
to default when user inputs non-numeric character.So, I suggested to have
similar behavior for both cases.
