Doable. Should the engine store the default value for "A INT = 1" in
RDB$FIELDS or in RDB$PROCEDURE_PARAMETERS then? You may say that only
overrides of the existing domains should go to RDB$PROCEDURE_PARAMETERS, but
I may object that system-generates domains are the existing ones with the
not-specified default value being overridden ;-)
