    Description

      After reading the Parameter javadoc I expected these 3 to be equivalent.

      @Parameter
      private String tab;

      @Parameter(value = "")
      private String tab;

      @Parameter
      private String tab = "";

      but they are not: if the parameter is not bound, then in the first two its value will be null, and in the third one it will be "".

      The javadoc is http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry5.2-dev/apidocs/org/apache/tapestry5/annotations/Parameter.html .

      Is the behaviour wrong or does the javadoc need to be clearer?
