Description

When an OSGi configuration is changed through the web console, all properties are set in the created/updated configuration, including those which are actually not set in the web console - but where just the default value is transfered back.
This prohibits those configurations from using any change in the default values.

The implementation could be smarter and check metatype info (if available) and exclude all properties with default values.
