The first example in the Forms API Quick Start Guide at
http://drupaldocs.org/api/head/file/contributions/docs/developer/topics/forms_api.html


includes this line: #default_value' => $edit['foo'],


but according to chx, it is better practice to use #default_value' =>
'foo', instead. The suggested patch fixes this example.


As this is one of the very first examples developers on the learning
will read about 4.7, it seems important to make sure the code matches
best current practices.
