fix for bug 3666. strip off leading and trailing quote from default text values that are deleted. default values are treated

differently from hollywood. The main difference a script writer needs to be aware of is that a deleted node will set the
value of the node back to the default value rather than deleting the node.

This means that a node that has a default value will always be in existence (if the parent exists) and that a user cannot
delete this node.
