Is it only properties that can have defaults in type definitions?
ie can private fields be only initialized after creation, eg in the

Is something like this allowed
TSomeObject = TObject
private
FBoolean: Boolean default false;
public
FPublishedBoolean: Boolean read FBoolean write FBoolean default false;
end;
"default" does NOT initialize the property.
It is used for streaming. This value will not be wriiten to an lfm for
example, and if loaded, then it acts as default
Can other fields private, protected etc have defaults set for them in
the type defintion, or does that have to be only after creation?
Default values must always be set in the constructor.
The only thing that is guaranteed is that the instance data is zeroed out.
