So far as I know, the only thing Cactus supports is to specify a
scalar default, this is used for each array element.  If you want
different defaults for different array elements (e.g. the C syntax
with a default value of {42,69,105}), you're out of luck. :(

I had thought I had an open bug report (feature request) for this,
but search in gnats just now I can't find it...

ciao,
