I repeat, ghastly.  :)

I've seen interfaces where the default is perhaps in italics or a different
color, along with a legend stating so.  When you alter something, it changes
color / changes style / etc.

I prefer that to FF's "missing keys and values" method.

If they don't want to clutter, then perhaps they could organize the list
(which is annoyingly long) into a tree which can be collapsed.
