I agree. The purpose of the "zero" option is to prefill a select with an helper and return an error if that option is the one selected (meaning that the user didn't choose anything). This has been requested because if there is no sane default to provide, having a dropdown with nothing in it tells nothing to the user. On the other end, a multiple select is a totally different "beast", because choices are shown to the user.... having a multiple select with a field that stands for "please do something" in it is a poor design decision. Use comments on the fields if you need to give directions to your users, that's the reason web2py has them.
