this is disturbing. why can i test at all when it's known that the test 
does not work? this should either work or all the irrelevant or 
non-working tabs should be removed.

although this is a workaround for the problem i really don't like this. 
in my opinion this is a bug and should be fixed. e.g. i have a 
listfield and "Select First Item" is selected. therefore, there IS a 
initial value. looking at the silva-extra and silva-content 
metadatasets there are also no default values set. hopefully, this is 
only a bug with the listfields (i just tested the multicheckboxfield 
and this does work without problems).

thanks anyway for the temporary workaround.
(shall i create an issue in the issuetracker?)
