I'm not sure whether everybody would like that. Values are good for 
spice simulations, but I would not like that the values are set 
automaticly to a specific value (for example 1k). 

I'd prefer a preset value of "XXX". This would indicates clearly that 
there's something missing.

agreed particulary.
