Description

The EM handles configuration of extensions if applicable. Once you have initially installed an extension the (individual) settings are saved within localconf.php.

Often this configuration is based on the default/suggested values provided by the extension author.

However if the default values provided by the extension-athor change with a more recent version there is no easy way to pick up again on the changed default values!

Prior to 4.2.0 the edafult-values where at least displayed in EM so one could copy&paste the default values into the input-ctrl. However somebody seems to have decided to remove the display of the default values. That ist not a good idea at all as long as there is no other way to reset the configuration to current default settings! :-<

good exetnsion to test with is 'inmar_admpanelwarp' which introduced the saving/restoring of the position some time ago, which required updates to the configuration.

The issue is very old, does this issue exists in newer versions of TYPO3 CMS (4.5 or 6.1)?
