Why does DefaultValue *always* overwrite the property if that option is not provided?

[nemec]

I would expect the default value to not be used unless the option was provided but without a value. Otherwise, it kind of duplicates the functionality of the constructor (but more limited since Attributes may only contain constant values).

For example, when parsing the following class:

public class Config
{
    [Option('v', DefaultValue = "Other")]
    public string Value { get; set; }

    public Config()
    {
        Value = "Initial";
    }
}

I would expect the following:

• Program.exe > Value == Initial
• Program.exe -v > Value == Other
• Program.exe -v Overwrite > Value == Overwrite

@nemec, this is correct.

This is the current behaviour of still unpublished kernel 2.0.

Hope to push a pre-release before the end of the month.
