True, but if you have the parameter formatted to be, for example, italicised, for some reason the wiki software bugs out and treats the apostrophes as text instead of formatting; the space solves that issue without affecting anything else.

That said, I probably should have included in my response that yes, that default value can be anything you want it to be. :]
