Solution sounds about right to me, but your '0' assumption could be a little
off, depending on how 'strict' you make dgd within its config file, all
strings, mixed and objects types (non numeric data types) are pre-initialized
to "nil" which is quite a bit different from a string being later assigned a
value of zero.
