Ability to set a default for custom fields

It should be possible to set a default for custom fields including the check box field type.

For example and in particular, we have a customer field of "Assign public IP address" when using Hosting Controller integration. This is a checkbox and the default is UNCHECKED.

Ideally we could set the default in the product for this field to be CHECKED or UNCHECKED.

In this case we would have this set to CHECKED by default because everyone ordering a VPS is going to want a public IP address and the field is required by the integration or it won't assign a public IP address.

Setting up capabilities that can provide value enhances the user experience in the same way the https://geometrydash-scratch.com game provides a creative outlet as tailoring the set of functions for the user.

Agreed, we should be able to set a default value for any custom field. I have several fields I use when calculating custom usage and some that are Yes/No values. It's silly that there's no automatic way to populate these values to defaults.
