defaultText option now seems to be ignored

In previous versions of StylishSelect, in particular 0.4.1, the defaultText parameter was respected, but no longer appears to be. I've created a Gist, copied from the included index.html to demonstrate. I attempted to debug and it appears that the default options, followed by the merged options, are overridden when the selected attribute is fetched from select element in the DOM.

As I understand it the selected element (the attribute of the form <option selected="selected" value="foo">Text!</option>) is meant to be the only element that overrides defaultText but it appears that elements selected at DOM ready time are viewed as selected which throws this off. I attempted a patch but could not fixup lines 125-128 since the first element .is(":selected") returns true if there is no selected="selected" element in the options list.

Is there another means of determining if the DOM actually contains an explicitly selected element in a select's options list? If so can we patch this up to respect defaultText?
