I have a simple composite control with the following attributes:

       [
       Bindable(true),
       Category("Appearance"),
       DefaultValue("Enter name:"),
       Description("The text for the name label.")
       ]
       public string NameLabelText
       {
           get
           {
               EnsureChildControls();
               return nameLabel.Text;
           }
           set
           {
               EnsureChildControls();
               nameLabel.Text = value;
           }
       }

However, when I drop the control on the page, the property is NOT set
to the DefaultValue.  It is blank.
Can someone help me and explain why the default value doesn't work?

Thanks
